Selling a Business in Coral Springs
Coral Springs is a planned suburban city in north-west Broward with retail plazas along University Drive, Sample Road and Wiles Road. Listings are typically restaurants, cafés, franchises and family-service businesses in one of the county's most stable residential markets.
Who Buys Coral Springs Businesses
Buyers for a Broward business are typically owner-operators: a manager or a tradesperson buying their own business, a family relocating from the Northeast or Latin America, a franchise owner adding a location. They are usually financed with an SBA 7(a) loan, so the business has to support a loan payment and a salary. A smaller number are investors looking for a business with a manager in place, who pay more for less owner involvement. In Coral Springs, buyers on this site are searching restaurants and food businesses most often.
Leases, Licences and Local Rules
Broward leases run heavily through retail plazas, where assignment clauses and co-tenancy terms matter, and on the east side through Las Olas, the beach, Federal Highway and US-1, where rents are higher and remaining term is valued. Broward County issues a local business tax receipt and so does each city, and both are reissued to a new owner; restaurants also carry a state licence from the Division of Hotels and Restaurants. Confirm the current requirements with the county and the city.
What Your Business Is Worth
Small and mid-sized businesses sell on a multiple of seller's discretionary earnings, the total benefit one owner takes from the business once the owner's salary, perks and one-time costs are added back to the profit. The multiple moves with the industry, the lease, the staff and how easily the business runs without you. We recast your numbers, compare them with closed sales of similar South Florida businesses, and give you a range with the reasoning, before you decide anything.
Confidentiality Comes First
Staff who hear a rumour start looking for work, competitors tell your customers, and suppliers tighten terms. So the business is marketed as a blind profile: the industry, the area, the size and the numbers, never the name or the address. A buyer signs a non-disclosure agreement and shows proof of funds before we tell them who you are, and showings happen after hours. The landlord hears once there is an accepted offer.

Questions Owners Ask
- Is there a business broker in Coral Springs?
- BreakThru Realty is a licensed Florida brokerage with a business brokerage division working Coral Springs and the rest of Broward County. We value the business, market it confidentially and manage the sale through closing.
- How much is my business worth?
- Most owner-operated businesses in South Florida sell for a multiple of seller's discretionary earnings: net profit plus the owner's salary, benefits and one-time or personal expenses run through the business. Where the multiple falls depends on the industry, the lease, the staff, the trend in the numbers and how much the business depends on you. A confidential valuation gives you the range for your business and the reasons behind it.
- Will my employees, customers or landlord find out?
- Not from us. The business is marketed without its name or address, buyers sign a non-disclosure agreement and prove their funds before they learn who you are, and showings happen after hours or are presented as something else. The landlord is approached only once there is an accepted offer, because the lease has to be assigned.
- What does a business broker charge?
- Brokers selling small businesses usually charge a success fee paid from the proceeds at closing, commonly quoted in the market at around ten percent of the price, often with a minimum fee; larger sales are usually priced on a sliding scale. BreakThru's fee is set out in writing in the listing agreement before you sign anything, and the valuation costs nothing.
