Property Nerds® / Eric & Janelle Boyenga
Your Eichler. Your next chapter. Let’s get the details right.
We’re Eric and Janelle Boyenga—Eichler and mid-century modern real estate specialists with the Boyenga Team at Compass. We help buyers and sellers connect the architecture they love with a clear, practical real estate strategy.
Silicon Valley at our core. Eichler homes across the Bay Area in focus.
The details are the difference
The atrium that changes your first impression. A wall of glass that connects everyday life to the garden. An original detail worth protecting. An update that deserves a closer look. Those are the things that make Eichler real estate personal.
Our approach brings architectural curiosity together with neighborhood research, property preparation and thoughtful representation. We help you look beyond a listing description and understand what matters for your next move.
What makes this floor plan work? Which changes are documented? How should the home be presented? What do the most relevant comparable sales actually tell us?
Better questions lead to a more useful conversation—and a plan built around you.

Before we talk
Share your preferred cities, timing, budget range and the features that matter most: an atrium, a particular layout, original materials or a thoughtfully updated home. A listing or saved photo study can be a helpful starting point.
Start with the property address, your timing and what you hope to accomplish. If available, gather a list of updates, permits, floor plans and recent inspections. We can discuss which details will help shape preparation, pricing and presentation.
Yes. A conversation can help you frame the decisions ahead, explore a neighborhood or identify useful next steps. Tell us where you are in the process so we can make the discussion relevant.
