A Vision of Success With Anita Edgar From Ray White Whitsunday

Shining bright in the Whitsundays, Anita Edgar is a familiar name and face across the region, particularly on Hamilton Island. As the go-to real estate agent for both Hamilton Island and Airlie Beach, Anita has a deep connection to her community and a reputation for delivering outstanding results for her clients.
Born in Sydney to Italian immigrant parents, Anita’s upbringing was humble, but her family’s emphasis on generosity has stayed with her throughout her life. “My dad’s saying was, ‘Always give to others in need, always.’ This is where my care, passion, and empathy for others began,” Anita explains with a smile.
Being Italian nurtured a caring nature in Anita, which has shaped both her personal life and career. She thrives on helping others, a trait that has contributed to her success in real estate. Over the years, her ability to connect with people and her genuine love for her community have allowed her to rise to Elite status within Ray White, ranking among the top 3 percent of agents in the company.
Anita’s professional journey began on Hamilton Island in 2000, when she first entered the real estate industry with PRD before moving to Ray White in 2011. She’s built a niche in the region, particularly on Hamilton Island, where she’s established strong connections over the years. “It's a small community, and I know everyone. I have a lot of connections here,” she says. “I know the island like the back of my hand, and I love helping clients find their dream homes in such a stunning place.”
Anita’s intimate knowledge of Hamilton Island is one of the key reasons she’s become known as the go-to agent in the Whitsundays for House Hunters International. In 2011, she was first approached to feature on the iconic reality TV show, but her busy schedule meant it would take another decade before she could commit. By 2022, she was ready, and since then, she’s filmed three episodes, with another set to air at the end of the year. Her experience and expert insight into the market have made her the show’s trusted agent for the Whitsundays.
“Being a part of House Hunters International has been an amazing experience. It’s a way to show the world how beautiful this region is and to help people make one of the most significant decisions of their lives,” Anita says.
As a woman in a previously male-dominated industry, Anita has always embraced challenges, seeing opportunities where others might hesitate. She believes in the power of empathy and understanding, qualities she says are essential in the real estate world. "I always felt that there was a space for a woman’s touch in real estate—someone who is empathetic, fierce when needed, and always protective of their clients' best interests," she adds.
Anita is quick to acknowledge that her success wouldn't have been possible without the support of her mentors. "Mark and Belinda Beale have been instrumental in helping, guiding, and growing my business. I also admire Mother Teresa. She was kind, loving, and always focused on helping others—those are qualities I try to live by."
Anita’s story is a testament to the power of dedication, community, and a genuine passion for helping others. Whether you're looking for your dream home in the Whitsundays or simply want to connect with a trusted local, Anita Edgar is the agent you can count on. Here’s to the ray of light that is Anita Edgar.
