What Our Clients Say

Moving my bakery business from Bergen County, NJ to Boca Raton seemed impossible until I found YBR. They helped me sell my NJ location at a great price, then found me an existing bakery in Boca that I could rebrand. Their real estate network helped us find a beautiful home nearby. The entire transition took about 5 months. I cannot recommend them enough for anyone making the move from the Northeast to Florida.

Joining the Business Broker Collective was a game-changer for my practice. The protected territory system means I am not competing with other members in my area, and the 20% referral commission on both sides is the best structure I have seen in the industry. I have already closed two deals from referrals in my first quarter. The support from the YBR team is outstanding.

I own four restaurants in the Tampa Bay area and was looking to acquire a fifth location. YBR found me an off-market Italian restaurant with a prime location, established clientele, and a profitable catering operation. Their due diligence process uncovered everything I needed to know before making an offer. The deal closed smoothly and the new location is already exceeding projections.

I was not sure if it was the right time to sell my roofing business. YBR provided a free valuation that gave me a clear picture of what my company was worth based on revenue, contracts, equipment, and market conditions. They were honest and straightforward — no pressure to sell. I decided to hold for another year and grow, and they said they would be there when I am ready.

I have been a business broker for 8 years and joined several networks. The Business Broker Collective is different because the referrals are real and the territory protection is enforced. In my first 6 months, I received 4 qualified referrals and sent 3 to colleagues in other territories. The 20% commission structure works both ways, which keeps everyone motivated to share opportunities.

As a general contractor looking to expand into the Florida market, I needed to acquire an established construction company with existing licenses and relationships. The Business Broker Collective connected me with the perfect opportunity — a mid-size residential builder with a strong reputation and a full pipeline of projects. YBR guided the entire acquisition process flawlessly.

We needed a professional valuation of our packaging manufacturing company for estate planning purposes. YBR delivered a detailed report that accounted for our specialized equipment, long-term customer contracts, proprietary processes, and real estate. Their understanding of the manufacturing sector was evident throughout the process. We now have a clear succession plan in place.

After 25 years running a plumbing and HVAC company on Long Island, my wife and I decided to move to Florida. YBR did not just sell my business — they connected us with a top real estate agent in Naples for our new home and even helped me explore franchise opportunities in Florida. The whole relocation was coordinated perfectly. We are living our dream now.

After building my roofing company from scratch over 18 years in New York, I was burned out and ready for a change. YBR understood the value of my recurring maintenance contracts, my trained crews, and my insurance relationships. They marketed my business confidentially and brought in three competing offers. I ended up selling for significantly more than I expected. Now I am enjoying life in Fort Lauderdale.

I was looking to invest in a laundromat business in Central Florida. The YBR team connected me with an off-market opportunity through their Insider Buyer network that I never would have found on my own. The due diligence support was incredible — they walked me through every detail of the financials and equipment condition. Now I own a thriving laundromat that was cash-flow positive from day one.

I ran a commercial construction company in New Jersey for 22 years. When I decided to sell and move to Florida, YBR made the entire transition seamless. They valued my business accurately, found a buyer who honored all existing contracts, and even connected me with a real estate agent in Tampa for my new home. The whole process from listing to closing took just 3 months.

After 15 years running three laundromat locations in South Florida, I was ready to retire. YBR understood the laundromat industry inside and out — they knew how to value the equipment, the leases, and the recurring revenue. They found a buyer within 6 weeks and negotiated a deal that was 30% above my initial asking price. I could not have done this without their expertise.

Selling a manufacturing business is not like selling a retail shop — there are equipment valuations, environmental assessments, customer contracts, and workforce considerations. YBR brought in specialists who understood every aspect of my CNC machining operation. They found a strategic buyer from the Midwest who was expanding into Florida. The deal was structured perfectly to maximize my after-tax proceeds.

I needed an accurate valuation of my express car wash before approaching investors for expansion. YBR delivered a comprehensive report within 48 hours that covered everything — real estate value, equipment depreciation, membership revenue projections, and comparable sales in the market. The investors were impressed with the professionalism of the report. Highly recommend for any car wash owner.

I owned a popular Vietnamese restaurant in Miami for 12 years. When family circumstances required me to sell quickly, YBR stepped up. They had a qualified buyer within 2 weeks through their network. The buyer loved the concept and kept the menu and staff intact. YBR handled the lease transfer, liquor license, and all the complicated restaurant-specific details. I am forever grateful.

Selling a full-service car wash with a detail shop is complicated — there is the real estate, the equipment, the chemical contracts, the employee transition. YBR handled all of it. They found a qualified buyer who kept my entire team employed, which was important to me. The process took about 4 months from listing to close, which I am told is fast for this industry.
