Selling a Business in South Florida

If you are interested in selling your business in Florida, the knowledge, experience and discretion of Palm Beach Business Brokers will be valuable assets in your endeavor. Our staff has 150 years of combined experience and has handled well over 1,000 business sales in the South Florida market.

Incidentally, the current state of capital gains tax laws makes the present time a very attractive one for a business owner to sell a business in Florida. A properly managed transaction can now produce substantial tax benefits for a seller, particularly in an installment sale over an extended period of time.

An accurate business valuation will be crucial to a successful sale. Our business brokers have the knowledge of the Florida market and experience to produce a business valuation that accounts for the tangible assets and earnings of your company, as well as its potential for expansion and success.

As you prepare to sell your business, we suggest that you:

• Have a valid reason to sell - the more valid your reason, the more interest you will generate among buyers
• Don't wait until it's too late - selling your business for economic or emotional reasons will lead you to the wrong deal for the wrong reasons
• Have your financial records and documentation prepared - The more meticulous the better. Our business brokers will help you identify what you have and what you'll need
• Be part of the marketing team for the sale of your company - you know your business best and we will help you put the information to use in securing a buyer
• Don't let your operations slip - maintain your normal business hours, inventory and appearance
• Maintain confidentiality in your day-to-day operations and let us engage the market

We will pre-qualify potential buyers for your business. Our evaluation will include financial credentials and will extend to competence and compatibility of potential buyers to help determine whether or not they can be successful after the deal is closed.

In the listing and marketing of your company, and throughout the transaction, we will work with both you and the buyer under strict confidentiality to help ensure the successful completion of the sale of your business.

Palm Beach Business Brokers will enhance the credibility of your business simply by association. Having been in business for over 26 years we represent stability, trust and fair dealing in the Southeast Florida business community.
