Guiding you with experience, strategy, and a higher level of service.
Angela Tharp is a broker associate with Christie's International Real Estate First Coast (FL License #BK3028849), serving buyers and sellers throughout Ponte Vedra Beach, St. Augustine, Nocatee, and St. Johns and Duval Counties. She specializes in relocation, move-up, first-time buyer, and luxury transactions in the $650,000–$1,350,000 range, and works as both a listing agent and buyer's agent.
With over 28 years in the real estate industry, Angela brings a background most agents don't have: appraisal, loan processing, and commercial underwriting. That foundation shapes how she prices and negotiates property today. Her real passion, though, is residential real estate, where the relationships are direct and the trust has to be earned every time.
Angela has closed more than 700 transactions totaling over $185 million in sales through 2024, per Northeast Florida MLS records, and closed 22 sides for $10M+ in volume in 2025 alone. Roughly 40% of her business comes from repeat clients and referrals, people who worked with her once and came back, or sent someone they cared about.
Angela was honored by the Jacksonville Business Journal's 2026 Book of Lists, ranked #173 among more than 12,000 residential real estate agents in Northeast Florida, placing her in the top 1.4% of agents in the region.
Services: listing representation, buyer representation, luxury home marketing, relocation, and military/veteran relocation.
Angela holds her broker associate license, a credential held by roughly 16–17% of agents nationwide [confirm source, e.g. NAR]. Her designations include CRS (Certified Residential Specialist, held by roughly 3% of agents nationwide), CIPS (Certified International Property Specialist, held by roughly 1% of agents nationwide), MRP (Military Relocation Professional), ABR (Accredited Buyer's Representative), and SFR (Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource). She also holds GUILD recognition, a selective distinction earned by experienced luxury agents who already hold the Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS™) designation. CLHMS™ itself is an Institute for Luxury Home Marketing credential that requires active membership and documented luxury-market performance, including closed residential transactions in the top 10% of the local market.
These credentials mean Angela is equipped to guide international buyers, sellers, and investors through cross-border transactions, and to support active-duty military and veteran families through relocation timelines most agents haven't handled. She's fluent in Spanish.
Angela is a graduate of the University of North Florida (BBA, Corporate Finance) and has been involved with NEFAR's Leadership Academy, serving on its Board from 2014 to 2016.
A Jacksonville resident for more than 35 years, Angela is a wife and mother of two grown sons. She combines deep local market knowledge with a strong business background to keep the process clear and manageable, whether a client is buying their first home, moving up, relocating from another state or country, or making a military move.
