Meet Diane Hayes

Hi, I’m Diane Hayes, a dedicated real estate agent with Howard Hanna Allen Tate Realtors, proudly serving the Raleigh and Triangle area since 2015. With nearly a decade of experience and over $75 million in closed transactions, I’ve had the privilege of helping clients successfully buy, sell, and invest in homes across this incredible community.

I’ve called the Triangle home for more than 20 years, and as a mom with children at NC State University and Cardinal Gibbons High School, my connection to the area runs deep. I truly understand what makes this region such a special place to live, work, and raise a family.

My approach to real estate is personal, strategic, and client-focused. Whether you’re purchasing your first home, selling a longtime property, or building an investment portfolio, I bring strong market knowledge, thoughtful guidance, and expert negotiation skills to every transaction.

Outside of real estate, you’ll often find me spending time with my family, playing tennis and mahjong, or exploring all that Raleigh has to offer. Giving back is also very important to me—I’m passionate about supporting breast cancer patients and founded a tennis tournament at my club benefiting the Pretty in Pink Foundation. I’m proud to be a member of The Club at Sunset, Devil’s Ridge Country Club, Tennis for Life, and the Holly Springs Chamber of Commerce.

I’d love the opportunity to help you navigate your real estate journey and achieve your goals. Let’s make it happen—together.

Fall Curb Appeal: The Best Plants to Make Your Home Stand Out

By: Riley Grove First impressions matter, especially when selling your home. As temperatures cool and summer flowers fade, fall offers an opportunity to refresh your landscaping with seasonal color and texture. The right combination of trees, shrubs and flowers can create a welcoming exterior that catches buyers’ attention and enhances your home’s curb appeal. Whether …
