Selected South Florida Transactions

Examples of business sales completed with Aniss Cherkaoui, P.A. as transaction broker. These transactions reflect regional experience across different industries and buyer types.

Selling a Business in South Florida

A sale begins with understanding your business, your reasons for selling, and what you want to achieve. Financial records, daily operations, lease terms, licenses, and the owner’s involvement can all affect the next steps.

Prepare the Business

Organized financial statements, tax returns, and supporting records help buyers understand the opportunity and reduce avoidable questions during their review.

Protect Confidentiality

Buyers are screened before receiving sensitive details. Information is shared in stages as their qualifications and interest are reviewed.

Work Toward Closing

Aniss Cherkaoui, P.A. helps coordinate communication, negotiations, and requests involving buyers, sellers, attorneys, accountants, lenders, and landlords, as needed.

Business Brokerage and M&A Advisory

An owner-operated business and a larger company may require different buyers, financing, and deal terms. The approach should fit the business and the owner’s goals.

Business Brokerage

For owner-operated and closely held businesses, the work includes sale-pricing guidance, confidential marketing, buyer screening, negotiation support, and coordination through the transfer of ownership.

These transactions may involve SBA financing, seller financing, lease approvals, retirement, or succession planning.

What Could Your Business Sell For?

A realistic selling-price range takes more than applying a multiple to revenue or profit. Aniss Cherkaoui, P.A. reviews financial records, owner involvement, operations, and relevant completed business sales to develop a broker’s pricing opinion.

Two businesses with similar earnings can attract different offers. Customer relationships, employees, financial documentation, financing, and the terms of a sale can all influence the outcome.

Understand a Potential Selling Price

A Broker’s Pricing Opinion / Most Probable Selling Price (BPO/MPSP) provides sale-pricing guidance based on a review of the business. It is not a formal appraisal.

Assess Readiness for Sale

The sellability assessment helps identify strengths and areas that may need attention before approaching buyers. It does not estimate a selling price.

Check Business Sellability

The business valuation calculator provides preliminary direction. Its output is a starting point for a discussion, rather than a business-specific pricing opinion.

Buying a Business in South Florida

Explore available businesses and review the buying process before requesting confidential information. Be prepared to discuss your acquisition goals, available capital, financing plans, experience, and timing.

The process may include buyer registration, a nondisclosure agreement, financial qualification, seller meetings, an offer, due diligence, financing, and closing.

International buyers considering an E-2 visa should coordinate their acquisition with qualified immigration counsel and the other professionals involved in the transaction.
