About Hayley Kirk-Smith
A family history in real estate and property, combined with a love of architecture and interior design, led Hayley to become an agent. As an ex primary teacher of 15 years, Hayley has always worked closely with people and today a major driver is to assist families with their property needs at whatever stage of life they are at. She considers it a privilege to be on the journey alongside her clients for what is almost always a significant life change.
Working in a high-performing team with Roberta Stewart, together they focus on supporting their vendors, designing bespoke solutions so that their home can shine. With market reach across the country and the world, no rock is left unturned to find the best buyer for every property. Hayley has proven herself highly skilled at building the connections and relationships essential in negotiations. She takes a positive solutions-focused approach, no matter what challenges are encountered, believing there’s always a way through that will achieve the best possible outcome.
Outside work Hayley has been active in the education sector since leaving teaching, serving on the Balmoral School Board of Trustees and the Playcentre Aotearoa Board as Co-Chair. She enjoys spending spare time with family and supporting her two sons through their education and interests. Hayley has a passion for adventurous travel and loves walking up Maungawhau/Mt Eden taking in the spectacular and ever changing view across our city as well as meeting friends in the nearby villages to enjoy the cafes and restaurants.
With children across four local schools, Hayley and Roberta have a wide network of contacts and specialise in helping local families with their real estate needs. They make sure that every part of the property journey is considered and managed in the best interests of their clients. They enjoy being real estate match-makers, helping vendors and buyers realise their property aspirations.

Testimonials
We worked with Hayley in July to sell our house, under very tight timeframes she delivered an excellent result for us enabling our family to take the next step towards our ultimate family home. Hayley is a great real estate agent, she understands the Mt Eden market, she has excellent insight into how to best present your home and she is well connected and integrated into the community – I don’t think there is anyone in Mt Eden she doesn’t know! Hayley has the utmost integrity and honesty and she is incredibly tenacious – all the things you would expect and more in a real estate agent. She works hard for you through every step of the process. We wouldn’t hesitate recommending Hayley to buy or sell your home. We are very happy with the service we received from her and have also had a great experience with the rest of the Unlimited Potential Team.
Brad & Maree, Mt Eden-
Professional, trustworthy, thorough and incredibly genuine. Not sure you could ask for much more in a real estate agent! We are so glad we listed our Mt Albert property with Hayley – she consulted with us the whole way through and I was surprised at the amount of detail in her communication throughout the marketing campaign. She also knows her stuff when it comes to the presentation standard of your home, appealing to the widest audience and interiors advice. We loved her honesty throughout. Hayley’s expertly run process gave us a great sale result and we are now very happy vendors en route to our next adventure! In a competitive real estate market Hayley definitely stands out from the crowd. Thank you for taking such good care of us!
Melissa & Mike, Mt Albert-
Before selecting a Real Estate firm to sell our home, we did our homework.
After visiting various open homes in our area and attending the auctions, we felt UP we’re for us.
We believed going with a smaller firm was a real positive, and UP’s business model matched our thinking.
Hayley and Roberta were a fantastic team, helping us through what could have been a stressful few weeks.
We never felt pushed into anything we didn’t want to do, and they took feedback and requests in their stride.
On Auction day while Jordan (auctioneer), Hayley and Roberta worked their magic out front,
it was great to have Grant’s (Director)calm influence and experience behind the scenes.
A great team of people, and a job well done.
Emily & Duncan, Sandringham-
Roberta and Hayley have just sold the Mt Eden home that was ours for 23 years, and we could not have wished for better sales people. Always pleasant and enthusiastic about their work they were dedicated to attaining the best outcome for us. They worked diligently to achieve the sale and we were delighted with the result. Their communication was always excellent, and throughout the process we received regular frank feedback on their progress with buyers. Hayley and Roberta both have a very happy welcoming nature that made it a pleasure for us to work with them - and no doubt buyers found the same.
Marketing was excellent, and we are so pleased that we chose Upward Potential over the other interested agents. Other people in the company were similarly supportive and we had no hesitation in accepting their sale proposal documents. Produced extremely quickly they were clear, concise and superior in every way to those we had received from competing agents.
