Founded in 1998 by Eric and Janelle Boyenga, the Boyenga Team has spent over two decades redefining modern real estate across Silicon Valley. As founding partners at Compass, Eric and Janelle have built one of the Bay Area’s most design-driven real estate brands — a trusted name synonymous with Eichler expertise, architectural marketing, and luxury San Jose home representation.
As San Jose Eichler Home Experts, the Boyenga Team is the go-to resource for homeowners and buyers who value mid-century modern design, architectural integrity, and neighborhood insight.
From the Fairglen Eichlers of Willow Glen, to the Merrivale West townhomes in West San Jose, to the Eichler enclaves of Fairwood and Fairglen Additions, Eric and Janelle’s deep understanding of San Jose’s architectural fabric gives their clients an unmatched edge.
Their marketing approach fuses architectural storytelling with data-driven pricing strategy and Compass’s national technology platform to maximize every listing’s visibility and value. Through programs such as Compass Concierge, Private Exclusives, and HomeLight Buy Before You Sell, San Jose sellers benefit from strategic renovation guidance, world-class presentation, and targeted digital reach across Silicon Valley’s most qualified buyer pool.
While San Jose is known for its diversity of design — from classic ranches to contemporary estates — a handful of neighborhoods preserve the pure spirit of California Modernism.
Fairglen Eichlers (Willow Glen) — Built between 1959 and 1962, these Claude Oakland-designed homes feature open-beam ceilings, atriums, and floor-to-ceiling glass, defining San Jose’s most iconic Eichler tract.
Fairwood and Fairglen Additions (Cambrian Park) — Late-1950s developments showcasing Joseph Eichler’s indoor-outdoor philosophy, radiant-heated slabs, and clean modern lines.
Merrivale West (West San Jose) — A 1970s architectural townhome community by renowned modernist builders, emphasizing light, geometry, and livability.
Whether representing a preserved Fairglen original, a revitalized Cambrian Eichler, or a custom mid-century-inspired hillside retreat, the Boyenga Team brings unparalleled architectural fluency to every transaction.
Known as Silicon Valley’s Property Nerds and Next-Gen Agents, Eric and Janelle blend creativity, technology, and market intelligence to elevate the real estate experience. Every home is marketed not simply as a listing, but as a story, lifestyle, and architectural legacy.
From cinematic videos and twilight photography that highlight San Jose’s post-and-beam silhouettes, to AI-driven analytics and hyper-local SEO, their design-driven strategy ensures each San Jose listing stands out among Silicon Valley’s luxury offerings.
The Boyenga Team’s record-setting Eichler sales and marketing innovations have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, NBC News, SFGate, Robb Report, Business Insider, and Inman.
Across California, publications from the San Francisco Chronicle to the Silicon Valley Business Journal have spotlighted Eric and Janelle’s leadership in San Jose Eichler sales, mid-century modern preservation, and real estate innovation.
Through their partnership with Compass Real Estate, the nation’s most advanced brokerage network, the Boyenga Team delivers national exposure with hyper-local expertise.
From San Jose’s award-winning school districts and vibrant neighborhoods like Willow Glen, Cambrian Park, and Almaden Valley, to relocation clients from Apple, Adobe, Google, and Netflix, they connect architectural homes with the perfect audience.
Sellers benefit from Compass’s exclusive Concierge Program — funding improvements that boost market value — and digital syndication that puts every San Jose Eichler and mid-century listing in front of design-savvy buyers worldwide.
For Eric and Janelle, real estate is about more than transactions — it’s about preserving California’s mid-century modern heritage, curating contemporary lifestyles, and helping clients thrive in San Jose’s competitive luxury market.
Their mission: blend innovation with integrity, and back every decision with data, design, and decades of experience.
The Boyenga Team’s success is built on lasting client relationships, architectural appreciation, and a relentless pursuit of excellence — attracting San Jose homeowners, Silicon Valley professionals, and design enthusiasts who value a forward-thinking real estate experience.
