Sell a Retail Store in South Florida
Selling a retail store in Palm Beach, Broward, or anywhere in South Florida starts with an honest number and a confidential process.
561-373-7788To sell a retail store in South Florida for the strongest price, you need someone who knows how buyers value retail stores. Retail stores sell on location, lease terms, and verifiable sales. When the owner also holds the real estate, the sale can be structured several ways.
What buyers look at
- Lease or property ownership
- Sales history matched to tax returns
- Inventory at cost
- Licenses that must transfer
How to prepare
- Reconcile sales with returns
- Plan an inventory count at closing
- Decide whether the property sells with the store
How the sale works
A private first conversation, a valuation built from your tax returns and P&L, blind marketing to qualified buyers who sign an NDA and show proof of funds, then negotiation and closing with Joshua beside you the whole way. If you own the real estate, it is priced separately so you can choose the structure that pays you the most.

Questions from owners
How much is my retail store worth?
Most retail stores are valued as a multiple of the owner's yearly earnings, adjusted for trends, customers, staff, and assets. Real estate is valued separately. See what drives value or request a confidential valuation.
How long does it take to sell a retail store?
Most sales take several months from listing to closing. Clean financials, a transferable lease or owned property, and licenses in order all shorten the timeline.
Can I sell without my staff finding out?
Yes. The business is marketed blind and buyers are screened before learning its name.
