Sell Your Business in Florida With KMF Business Advisors

To sell your business in Florida, start by preparing accurate financial records, determining a realistic valuation, and ensuring your legal documents are in order. Then, list your business confidentially with a Florida business broker, market it to qualified buyers, and negotiate terms before closing with the help of attorneys and accountants.

Selling a small business requires planning. Begin with a professional valuation to set the right asking price. Make your business attractive by organizing financials, contracts, and operations. A licensed Florida business broker can help you find serious buyers and guide you through negotiations, due diligence, and closing.

A business’s worth depends on its financial performance, industry, assets, growth potential, and market conditions. In Florida, most small to mid-sized businesses sell for a multiple of their Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE), typically 2–4x, plus assets. A professional valuation gives you an accurate estimate.

Many owners choose to sell when profits decline, competition increases, or they are ready to retire or move on. If running your business is no longer financially rewarding or personally fulfilling, it may be the right time to sell rather than continue struggling.
