Our business is built on referrals. Below are just a few of the kind words some of our past clients said about their experience with Twist Of Fate Estate Sales handling their estate sale needs.
“If you are in need of an Estate Sale Company, you have found it in Twist of Fate. We were referred to Twist of Fate by a friend who attends their estate sales as well as our attorney's office. From the very first contact we knew we were in good hands. We were concerned because of the amount of inventory and the monumental task that it would take to prepare for this sale. However, after our initial meeting with Tachele and Joel, we walked away with a good understanding of how the process would work. The professionalism, integrity, and grace they demonstrated throughout gave us a lot of confidence and trust in what they were doing. We strongly recommend Twist of Fate to anyone in need of this service. Thank you to Tachele and Joel and their team. We are most grateful!” - Kathy and Michael Peterson
“I had an extensive 30+ year collection of firearms which I wanted to downsize. I called Twist of Fate Estate Sales (TOFES). I had attended many of their local sales and was always impressed with how they conducted their business. After my call Joel and Tachelle came to my home, evaluated my collection, especially those items I wanted to liquidate. Within a short time I had a written contract specifying everything we had agreed to. I am more than satisfied with how these items were sold and with the return I received on my investment. I would highly recommend TOFES anytime you have a collection or a house full of possessions that have a value sufficient to warrant the use of the services offered by Twist of Fate Estate Sales.” - M. Wagner
“The members of Twist of Fate Estate Sales were a joy to work with. They are polite, answered all our questions and worked their hardest to get the most for us. Their marketing was superb and reached from the East to West coast. We have and will recommend them to our friends.” - Ruth C.
“What an amazing process by Joel and Tachele, they provided exceptional care through the entire process of our downsizing. It was a short notice event and Joel and Tachele handled it in stride. Unbelievable results, three days and our house was basically empty. They handled the staging, the pricing, and all of the work during the sale along with handling all of the pay process. We could have never accomplished without them. Thank you, thank you, thank you.” - Doug E.
“Tachele and Joel made a stressful time much easier. They took care of EVERYTHING and things I hadn’t even thought of. I interviewed other Estate sale companies and they were by far the classiest. I trust them and look forward to a continued friendship on the other side of this sale. Thanks for making life a little easier, Twist Of Fate.” - J. Grice
“I live in Kansas and was needing to find a company to hold an estate sale for my parents in Nebraska. I turned to Twist of Fate as they came recommended by my friends/family in Nebraska. After our first phone call, Joel scheduled a walk through of the house within just a few days then called me right away with his thoughts and a plan was put into place for an online sale by the next day. The online sale allowed us to watch and feel a part of things from our home in Kansas. Then after the sale, Joel made arrangements for clean-out and donation of the rest of the items in the home. Being out of state never felt like a problem as Joel was always very prompt in answering any questions and explained the process of the sale and clean-out thoroughly. He was readily available by phone, text and email. I had been nervous for several months thinking about what we would do with all the things in the home as we tried to prepare for the sale of the house. Joel put my mind at ease and handled everything very professionally and yet compassionately, knowing that this was also a difficult process to go through. We couldn’t have done what was needed without the help of Twist of Fate and are very appreciative of all their efforts.” - T. Gladow
“We greatly appreciate the time we spent with Twist of Fate. We could not have done this project without you. Together, we took a walk through history during the preparation for the estate sale that we found interesting and remarkable. We enjoyed the whole process from start to finish.” - Bernie and Sally Saucier
“Twist of Fate Estate Sales was a life saver for our family. Joel and Tachele were available from the start to answer all my questions and concerns. Every time I talked to them they were kind and polite and stopped what they were doing to address any questions I had. They cared for my mom’s belongings and home like it were their own. Once they were started on preparing for the sale, I could step back with confidence that no matter the outcome, there was not a better company I could have gone with. From their knowledge of items they were looking to the connections they had to address unique items to their presence on the web with their obvious throng of followers, we knew we were in the right hands to have the best shot of helping mom out through the sale of her estate. Even after the sale they had connections with folks who could quickly remove anything remaining that the family did not want. Sale Fri-Sun and house empty by midweek. We could not have been more satisfied. Thank you for your kindness and professionalism.” - Jim Hobza
“Losing a family member is already difficult enough then comes the stress of liquidating an estate. I did not know where to start.. Joel and Tachele were responsive, always respectful of our wishes and of our family member’s home . The sale exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family members that attended the event also commented on how organized and respectful this company was. Thanks again!!” - K. Betts
“Joel and Tachele did an incredible, professional job of organizing and executing our online estate sale and subsequent pickup of the sold items. They far exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Twist of Fate Estate Sales” - L. Boston

“We sold our house overnight and we were moving out of state. I called Twist of Fate and they came over that weekend and had our back every single step of the way. They came and appraised everything while I was in the house packing. My movers came and packed what I wanted to keep and left. I left my keys with Joel and never looked back. They got top dollar on things and what did not sell they had it hauled away. I never worried about a thing and a couple of weeks later we received a check with a complete itemized list of time and dollar amount that sold. I would recommend Twist of Fate without hesitation. Job well done Thanks Twist of Fate for making this move painless for us.” - Steve & Julie Barnes
“A few years ago, our neighbors held an inhouse estate sale conducted by Joel and Tachele, owners of Twist of Fate Estate Sales. We were impressed with how well the furniture and home accessories were organized. When it came time for us to make a lifestyle change by downsizing from a good-sized house to an apartment, it was our good fortune to find the business card we picked up at our neighbors’ sale. We expressed our concern to Joel and Tachele about holding an estate sale during the Covid-19 pandemic. They suggested we hold an online estate sale. We were very pleased with the outcome of the online sale. Joel and Tachele organized, photographed, measured, and researched our possessions. The items were presented online, oftentimes in vignettes, to best showcase the objects. Potential buyers could set up appointments for private showings. After the online bidding was completed, Joel and Tachele oversaw the removal of the sale items by the buyers. The house was cleaned out and in good condition at the conclusion of the sale. We highly recommend Twist of Fate Estate Sales. It was a pleasure working with this company and its capable and energetic owners.” - Ken & Victoria Kroeker
“Joel and Tachele at Twist of Fate Estate Sales were enthusiastic, hard-working and responsive partners in the huge undertaking of selling my mom's estate. The project seemed overwhelming, but this energetic team made it easy. They came in, assessed and delivered, using their extensive marketing expertise, their deep network of professional appraisers and their competent experience. They were responsive and fun to work with and made the whole sale a celebration of my mom's good sense and collecting talents. We were pleased they found such great homes for all her treasures. They were able to address each concern as it came up, and solve every problem with a friendly attitude. Before I needed them, I never realized how much a resource like this could mean. They're a real asset to our business community and I recommend them without reservation.” - Suzanne Kehm
“Very professional company. Very responsive with any questions. I was pleasantly surprised with the proceeds that Twist Of Fate raised. I would highly recommend” - Scott Bailey
“I don’t even know where to start, Twist Of Fate is an amazing company! From the very first day we met Joel and Tachele it was as if they were a part of our family. Not knowing anything about an estate sale nor having ever been to one, they were awesome at explaining the process as well as answering the million questions that we had. Their honesty and professionalism is beyond anything we could’ve imagined. The sale was a huge success. I had many friends contact me after attending the sale with compliments on how professional the sale was run, how beautifully it was staged and how polite everyone was… What a stress freeing complement that was! All in all, this company is the definition of INTEGRITY, thank you so much for everything. I would Recommend Twist Of Fate to anyone having an estate sale!” - Tim and Deeona Erwin
“OH my goodness. . . . . we went to a house to vacuum, clean the windows, wipe down walls, etc. It was vacant because the owner now lives out of state due to his parent passing in the last several months. Twist of Fate came and had a great estate sale last weekend. . . .so we were there to SWEEP, CLEAN and VACUUM when they showed up. .. ."Oh no, that's our job -- we're here to make sure it's ready for the first showing"! WOW -- it had a first showing just shortly after they left! THEY KNOW how to organize a sale of your stuff and then ready it for being on the market to sell!” - The Bill Black Team - NP Dodge
“Deal With The Best - I recently attended an estate sale hosted by Twist of Fate and was more than impressed with polite service, organized items and quality of the items. Joel and “T” from Twist of Fate is the team to handle your needs if you are selling OR buying! I had another estate seller a couple years ago that lied and stole from me and Twist of Fate has restored my trust by their integrity in estate sale businesses! I am very proud of my new items I purchased from them and if I have need for an estate sale company I will choose them! Watch for their ads!” - Sylvia Kessler
“I would highly recommend using Twist of Fate. Joel and Tachele were both extremely efficient, professional and easy to work with. And we got the results we wanted!” - Jim Cleary
“Joel and Tachele are the Best! When it comes to estate sales, not only do they work to get top dollar, they are extremely ethical and excellent communicators through the entire process. Twist of Fate relies on experts for accurate pricing on esoteric items. One of my clients had an unusual item that was worth $40,000. The client had no idea until Joel and Tachele brought in their Art appraiser. These same clients had interviewed other estate sale companies who had completely missed this item. I have referred several clients to them and all have been very satisfied with their services. I trust them 100% with my clients.” - Rachel Skradski - Berkshire Hathaway
“When my parents needed to leave their home of 40 years, we interviewed three estate sale options. There was no comparison for us, Joel & Tachele were the obvious choice. They were great communicators and very hard-working. They made a very difficult situation, much easier. Their attention to detail, knowledge, connections and organization made the entire process easy. Joel does a great job researching & logistics and Tachele is masterful at staging the items for sale. A great team. I would highly recommend Twist of Fate Estate Sales! They are the best!” - Suzan Karrer Rohrig
“When my wife’s father passed, we realized that an even bigger challenge lay ahead of us. The house was still packed full of items, memorabilia and other things that were collected over 50 years of life. It was truly overwhelming as we began to assess the home and its contents. This was no small task and we realized we needed experts. Joel and Tachele met with us several times as we prepared for two separate estate sales to deal with all the contents, from artwork, jewelry, coins and countless other household items. They were always quick to respond to any questions we had and took the time to explain the process. They were very compassionate, professional, knowledgeable and kept us always informed. After the sale, they coordinated the donation and removal of items that did not sell. Throughout the process, they treated our parent’s home with respect and care. I would highly recommend “Twist of Fate Estate Sales”. - Dave and Jill Carney
“From the time I called to get information regarding an estate sale, I felt such a good vibe. Working with Joel and Tachele has been like family! I would tell them I wouldn’t bug them, I would have a question and bug them anyway, and they always responded! Also, I lead in faith with them, trusted them when my own mother said, Sarah I wouldn’t just allow people into my home and let them go through your things without you being home. Joel and Tachele are just good people and I trusted them from the beginning! They did my sale for me, was very successful and cleaned up behind themselves! I truly hope we will be able to stay in contact because they are just good people! I would recommend them to anyone who is in need of an estate sale!” - S. Chillous
“When my husband and I were helping his mother get her house in Omaha ready to sell so that she could move to Texas and live near us—we had many tasks before us. One huge thing was to have an estate sale! My husband’s mom had lived in their home for 56 years and had collected many things from the seasons of their lives. When we met Joel and Tachele, we felt they were an answer to prayer. They are so easy to talk to—they have wise experience and wide connections and such good business sense. They gave us wonderful advice and were above board in all their dealings. They were extremely helpful to us in preparing and carrying out a successful estate sale—especially as we lived out of state. We have nothing but good things to report!” - S. and S. Blodgett
“Above and beyond…your attention to detail and positivity are impressive. You provided a very pleasant experience in the midst of what can be overwhelming chaos, and achieved a very strong result. Very Grateful!” - P. Boyd
“From start to finish, Joel and Tachele with Twist of Fate were terrific to work with. At the initial consultation they clearly explained the process and the value they bring to the estate sale. My client was initially skeptical of using an estate sale company because his friends had told them of so many horror stories of other companies. None of that happened with Twist of Fate and my client was extremely happy with the whole process. They came highly recommended by fellow agents and I would whole heatedly recommend them to future clients and family members.” - Nathan Moseley (Realtor)
“We had an estate sale for our parents a few months ago. Joel and Tachele made the process easy. They were very organized in preparation, during sale, and after sale was over. They were very easy to work with. They were always available when we had a question and communicated well. We would not have been able to make as much money from the sale if they were not involved. They have an appraiser they work with that determines the price of artwork etc...I would highly recommend Twist of Fate for your estate sale needs. They make the process look easy.” - P. Barclay
“As a family, you're never prepared to take care of your parents' life long possessions. We contacted Twist of Fate and as fate would have it, it was the best thing we could have done. Joel and Tachele came by for a walk through and guided us through the process and made it so easy for us. They handled everything from the staging, preparation, marketing, clean up and taking care of donating what was left. We couldn't have been happier with the out come! Thank you Joel and Tachele!!” - John & Jill Overkamp
“We couldn't be happier with Twist of Fate Estate Sales. Joel and Tachele did an amazing job. They took our accumulation of furniture, décor, tools, sporting goods, and miscellaneous items and then organized, staged, and priced everything in preparation for the weekend sale. Many hours of their hard work resulted in a successful outcome. Their reputation and dedicated followers combined to bring steady traffic to our home for 3 days. In the end, they arranged for pickup of remaining odds and ends at a charitable donation. This was a smooth and even enjoyable experience.” - Larry & Connie Halldorson
“We contacted Twist of Fate Estate Sales with only six weeks till closing of our house. Other estate sale companies were not even interested in helping us. Joel and Tachele were very helpful from the start. We had over 20 years worth of “stuff” to organize and sell. Joel and Tachele worked overtime to fit us in their schedule. They were extremely helpful with all aspects of the sale including staging, organizing, displaying, and managing all the items both large and small. We had to do nothing in preparation. Feedback from neighbors, friends, and relatives was all very positive. Joel and Tachele delivered on all their promises including selling all the large items and organizing the charity to remove leftover items and leaving a clean house. We highly recommend Twist of Fate and would definitely use them again.” - F and M Grabher
“We found Joel and Tachele through estatesales.net. Our mom’s house had sold very quickly, and we had hired an estate sale agent who suddenly became unavailable because of a family emergency. Through the communication network on estatesales.net, we had a few companies contact us that were available, but we were panicked because the house was closing in about 45 days! As soon as I talked to Joel, I was pretty much sold on hiring Twist of Fate. He and Tachele were so understanding and reassured us with their experience and willingness to answer any question or concern we had. Their philosophy of treating their clients like family really rang true for us. Because we all live out of state, it was very reassuring to be able to put our trust in them to handle our mom’s estate sale without any reservations. And because of their attention to detail, we had a very successful outcome in sales as well as great feedback from neighbors and friends who attended the sale. We are truly thankful for the “twist of fate” that led us to Joel and Tachele. They helped ease the burden of managing the emotional task of parting with 60+ years of memories that we as a family called home." - Julie, Nancy and Bob
"Very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable couple. Estate sale was a success and couldn't have done it without them. Nice staging for the sale and clean up afterward was awesome. Would hire them again if needed and definitely recommending them to any one interested in having an estate sale!" - S. McVey
"When we had to quickly clear three floors of furnishings and personal belongings from a large family home, we were very lucky to find Twist of Fate. Without their help, we could never have made the deadline. Joel and Tachele were very professional and clearly experienced. Their service went beyond hat we hoped for. They explained fully what to expect and were excellent at communicating with us throughout the process. They treated our property with respect and took great care with everything in the home. We were VERY pleasantly surprised with the results, and we would highly recommend this team to anyone needing help managing the property part of a life transition. The whole Twist of Fate team are knowledgeable, efficient, thoughtful, and fun! Could not have asked for a better experience." - Pat and Joyce O’Neil
"TWIST OF FATE is amazing to work with and treated us like family. We needed to dispose of a houseful of furniture, household goods, and a lifetime accumulation of personal treasures and possessions, and they made it almost fun.

They are true to their word and we can recommend them without hesitation." - R. and B. Bowen

"From my very first contact with Twist of Fate Estate Sales, I knew owners, Joel and Tachele would provide the professionalism, care and guidance our family needed to work through the difficult task of selling our parents personal belongings. They both were so attentive to our requests and really put our minds at ease through the entire estate process. Joel and Tachele were both so knowledgeable about markets for both heirloom and modern day items. Their responsiveness and professional handling from estate preparations to the finalization of proceeds enabled a very smooth transition for our entire family. They both handled our parents belongings with such dignity and I felt like we gained two family members through this whole process. Thanks Joel and Tachele for all of your hard work and support through such a difficult time!" - Shelly Holzworth
"When you are facing an impossible situation (parting with your treasures), the "dynamic duo" of Joel and Tachele will do it for you. From start to finish, they do it all. Remember these two words: Items/Sold. Because you make it happen with the items and they make it "Sold" and with such style! They cleared out my 100 year-old, two story house. Inclement weather and all. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to relatives and friends." - Dorothy and Geoff Pesek
"Moving dad from a 4 bedroom home to a 1 bedroom condo was an overwhelming task that was very emotional for the whole family. Joel and Tachele with Twist Of Fate Estate Sales came to the rescue! Our only task was to remove items important to us, and they came in and worked their magic. Joel and Tachele understand what a difficult time it is for families. They genuinely cared about making the transition as smooth as possible, and go above and beyond just getting ready for the sale. They were extremely professional and easy to work with. I will be calling on them again for the next estate sale!" - Roni Wanser
"I cannot express my appreciation enough for all that Joel and Tachele did to help me with my move. Entering this new chapter in my life at 74 was more than I could handle. Looking at so many years of 'stuff' I didn't need any longer and having to decide what to do with furniture, pots and pans, clothing, shoes, etc. was so overwhelming. From my first meeting with Joel, I new Twist Of Fate would do all they could to take care of everything. We packed up my belongings, headed to Colorado, and left everything as it was. I was blown away with the results of my sale. I am so pleased how Joel and Tachele took care of not only my sale - but me. There is no way I would have been able to handle the sale myself. They did everything. The sale, donating things that didn't sell, trashing what was left, and leaving the house clean. I can't thank them enough." - Kathleen Dare
"I can't thank you both enough for taking such good care of my Mom & Dad's estate sale, from beginning to end & taking good care of me. You have given me peace of mind during this whole process. I was so fortunate to find Twist Of Fate! Joel & Tachele were so respectful, thoughtful & kind to my family & life long neighbors. They were able to asses the inventory & schedule an estate sale in a very timely manner. I was delighted with the results. If you find yourself in a "twist of fate" I would encourage you to contact Joel & Tachele." - Janet Greenwald
