The Boyenga Team / NextGenAgents / Silicon Valley Property Nerds
Since 1996, Eric and Janelle Boyenga—founding partners at Compass—have led the way as Silicon Valley’s original real estate innovators. As top-producing agents and recognized NextGenAgents™, the Boyenga Team has built a reputation for always putting clients first while redefining how real estate is purchased and sold from the ground up. Known throughout the industry as proud Property Nerds, they blend deep local knowledge with cutting-edge marketing, predictive analytics, and digital strategy to deliver superior results across Silicon Valley’s most sought-after communities, including Palo Alto, Los Altos, Cupertino, Sunnyvale, Saratoga, Menlo Park, and Los Gatos.
The Boyenga Team’s dynamic group of 12 professionals thrives on collaboration, fueled by a shared commitment to provide exceptional client care. With complementary skills and neighborhood-specific expertise, they represent more than a century of combined experience across luxury real estate, Eichler and Mid-Century Modern homes, and Silicon Valley’s tech-driven housing market. Over the years, the Boyenga Team has successfully represented many of the region’s most distinctive luxury homes and estates—showcasing architectural design, innovation, and lifestyle through elevated storytelling and digital precision.
Leveraging the power of Compass Concierge, the team helps sellers maximize their home’s potential through strategic preparation, staging, and renovation—all with no upfront costs. Their signature 3-Phase Marketing Strategy integrates pre-launch buzz, digital storytelling, and data-driven exposure to reach the right buyers faster and generate top-tier results. For clients seeking discretion, their access to Compass Private Exclusives allows them to market homes off-MLS, maintaining privacy while still connecting with a targeted network of qualified buyers.
We speak the language of real estate—in fact, our team can speak 14 languages. From architectural storytelling to AI-driven market insights, the Boyenga Team continues to set the modern standard for real estate excellence in the Bay Area.

"Once we met Eric and Janelle, we knew immediately we wanted to have them sell our home. They provided many options and were very open and honest in their recommendations, but in the end, they let us know it was our decision. We agreed with all of their recommendations, and in the end, they were right. Eric's analytics of the neighborhood, pricing, and potential buyers were invaluable, and Janelle's overall command of the listing and selling process were exceptional. Selling a home can be a stressful and emotional process, but with Eric and Janelle, they made it a calm, non-hectic, and an enjoyable time. The outcome of the sale also exceeded our expectations. I cannot recommend Eric, Janelle, and their team enough. I would definitely use them again." - Rick R.

"I've worked with Eric over the last year and can't say enough about him. He is one of the most thoughtful, hard-working, and ethical people in real estate. His record of success speaks for itself. I recommend him and his team without reservation!" - Greg C.
★★★★★
"It was a pleasure working with the Boyenga team! We are so happy with our new home and they made sure that the entire experience would be smooth for us. Even after the sale was closed, we had their support every step of the way. Highly highly recommended!" - Omer S.

"I had a great experience with Janelle Boyenga and her team in selling my uncle's condo in San Jose. I was not familiar with the San Jose market for condos and relied on Janelle's expertise. Based on her recommendations and her contractor's cost estimate, I let her handle everything. Timelines were met, the condo update budget was spot-on and his condo received multiple offers in a week. If you are a busy person and do not have time to update your property yourself, travel to the realtor's office or just hate driving on busy freeways like me, working with the Boyenga team is for you. I only met Janelle in person once and after that we kept in touch by phone, emails, and text. Communication was excellent. They used DocuSign for all their E-signature needs and a mobile notary public came to my house for the escrow paper signing. I would highly recommend Janelle and the Boyenga team for your selling needs." - Karrie Q.
