Janelle & Eric were exceptionally attentive, they truly focused on our best interest, providing a very positive outcome on our home purchase, as well as the sale of our existing property.
Our friends recommended Janelle & Eric to sell my Father’s house, they were extremely professional and provided us sound advice and guidance in the sale of a complicated family trust. It turned out to be a huge success!
We met Janelle and discussed an off-market sale of our home, within a day the team went into action, and within a week the team brought us, three potential buyers, which was leveraged into a high sale in the neighborhood.
We interviewed 5 agents to list our home for sale. We found the Boyenga’s to be genuine, not pushy or salesy, as you could guess we chose them, and the sale turned out better than we could have ever expected.
Eric, Janelle, and the team provided us a wonderful, stress-free home-selling experience. They handled every minute detail of the home preparation providing us an outstanding net result.

Once we met Eric and Janelle, we new 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.
t 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!

Beautiful photography is one of the most powerful tools for selling your home. Compass uses best-in-class photographers to show your home in its best light, make a positive first impression, and attract more buyers.
A property receives the most traffic within the first few weeks of hitting the market. It is important to get the price right in order to gain the attention of interested buyers and maximize your home's position in the market.
Using competitive analysis, market research, and Compass’ suite of AI-powered tools, we recommend a price for your property to generate the most activity and offers early on before buyers move on to newer listings.
Over Market Value
Percentage of Buyers
If the asking price is too high, then the property appeals to fewer buyers.
Using proprietary tools such as Collections and Insights, we keep you informed of market conditions and traffic to your property.
Collections allows us to have a collaborative conversation on your home selling process with instant updates on comparable listings and access to insider knowledge previously only available to the agent community.
Insights is a detailed, custom dashboard that allows us to assess the impact of our online marketing campaigns in real time. By capturing this data, we are able to further target our ads to buyers most interested in your home.

You will send all invoices to your dedicated agent for payment by Compass; when your property closes during the term of the listing agreement, Compass Concierge will issue an invoice reflecting the total cost of services rendered. Payment will be collected using your preferred payment method either at the time of closing or at the one-year anniversary of your participation in the program, whichever comes first In the event that your property does not sell or the listing agreement is terminated for any or no reason (including the propery going off market) Compass Concierge will collect any costs incurred by home improvement work preformed

A Private Exclusive listing is an off-market home that can be shared by a Compass agent with their Compass colleagues directly. Property details aren’t disseminated and won’t appear on public home search websites. Listing your home as a Private Exclusive allows you to control what information is shared— while still getting exposure to top agents at Compass.
Compass Coming Soon gives us valuable opportunities to market your property while building anticipation among potential buyers and pressure-testing our pricing strategy — all without accruing days on market.
