3 New South Florida Business Listings: Ad Agency, Tax Practice & Pet Grooming

South Florida's business-for-sale market continues to offer a wide range of entry points — from sub-$300K owner-operator plays to multi-million-dollar professional service firms. This week's new listings span three counties and three distinct industries, giving buyers at every tier something worth a closer look.

Miami-Dade Advertising Agency: $2,500,000 Asking — 3.9x Cash Flow Multiple

A full-service advertising agency based in Miami-Dade County has come to market at $2,500,000. The business operates in one of the most competitive and lucrative media markets in the Southeast, serving clients across South Florida's diverse commercial landscape. With a well-established client roster and proven revenue streams, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a going-concern media operation in a high-demand market.

The financials are strong: annual revenue of $2,099,877 with discretionary earnings of $633,794, yielding a 3.9x earnings multiple on the asking price. For a professional services business in the advertising sector — where client relationships and creative talent drive recurring revenue — a sub-4x multiple represents solid value, particularly given the firm's demonstrated ability to generate over $2M in top-line revenue.

This deal is best suited for a strategic buyer: an existing agency looking to expand its Miami footprint, a private equity group targeting the marketing services sector, or an experienced operator with media industry background. Due diligence should focus on client concentration (what percentage of revenue comes from the top 3-5 clients), contract terms and renewal rates, and key-person dependency among creative and account management staff.

Palm Beach County Tax Practice: $995,000 Asking — 5.7x Earnings Multiple

A well-established tax practice in Palm Beach County is now listed at $995,000. Tax and accounting firms in South Florida's affluent Palm Beach market benefit from a stable, high-net-worth client base with complex filing needs — individual returns, business entities, trusts, and estate planning. This type of practice typically enjoys strong client retention year over year, making it a predictable cash-flowing asset.

Annual revenue stands at $660,000 with discretionary cash flow of $175,386, placing the earnings multiple at 5.7x. While this is higher than the CPA practices we've profiled recently, it reflects the premium Palm Beach market commands and the value embedded in a loyal, recurring client book. The asking price of $995,000 keeps this just under the $1M threshold — a meaningful psychological and financing boundary for many buyers.

The ideal buyer is a licensed CPA or enrolled agent — or a firm looking to bolt on a Palm Beach County book of business. Buyers should scrutinize client tenure, average revenue per client, and whether the current owner is willing to provide a meaningful transition period. A structured earnout tied to client retention post-close is worth negotiating here to protect the buyer's investment.

Broward County Pet Grooming Business: $275,000 Asking — High-Revenue Owner-Operator Play

A pet grooming business in Broward County has entered the market at $275,000, and the revenue figure is the headline: $430,158 in annual sales. The South Florida pet care industry has seen sustained growth driven by high pet ownership rates and a consumer base willing to spend on premium grooming services. This business has clearly built a loyal customer following, evidenced by its strong top-line performance.

Discretionary cash flow is reported at $14,337 — a figure that warrants careful examination. With $430K in revenue and only $14K flowing to the owner, the business is carrying significant operating costs. The asking price of $275,000 represents a 19.2x multiple on current cash flow, which is elevated. However, the revenue base suggests real operational scale — the right owner-operator who can tighten expenses or bring grooming services in-house could meaningfully improve margins.

This listing is best suited for an experienced groomer or pet industry operator who sees a turnaround or optimization opportunity. Due diligence must focus on the cost structure: staffing levels, lease terms, supply costs, and whether the current owner is drawing a market-rate salary (which would reduce stated cash flow). If expenses can be rationalized, the underlying revenue base makes this a compelling fixer-upper in a growing sector.

The Bottom Line

Today's new listings offer genuine variety — a premium Miami-Dade media firm, a recurring-revenue Palm Beach tax practice, and a high-volume Broward grooming business with upside potential. Each deal tells a different story and suits a different buyer profile, which is exactly what a healthy market looks like.
