4 South Florida Business Sales: Tax Practice at 1.5x, CPA at 2.1x & Two Ad Agencies

South Florida's business-for-sale market continues to offer compelling opportunities across professional services and media sectors. Today's featured deals span three counties — Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach — and range from an accessible $75,000 entry point to a $1.25M premium acquisition, all with verified cash flow data from the Business Brokers of Florida MLS.

Miami-Dade Tax Practice: $75,000 Asking — 1.5x Cash Flow Multiple

This established tax practice in Miami-Dade County is one of the most attractively priced professional services businesses currently listed in South Florida. With an asking price of just $75,000, it serves a loyal client base generating $93,060 in annual revenue and $48,827 in discretionary earnings — a 1.5x earnings multiple that is exceptionally rare in today's market.

The financials tell a clear story: this business earns back nearly two-thirds of its purchase price in a single year. For a CPA, enrolled agent, or tax professional looking to acquire an existing book of business rather than build from scratch, this represents a fast-track path to ownership with minimal capital outlay.

Due diligence should focus on client retention rates, the mix of individual versus business filers, and whether the current owner is willing to provide a transition period. Tax practices with strong recurring client relationships — especially those serving small businesses — tend to retain clients well through ownership transitions when handled properly.

Broward County CPA Practice: $275,000 Asking — 2.1x Earnings Multiple

An established CPA practice in Broward County is available at $275,000, backed by $132,890 in annual discretionary cash flow and $148,125 in revenue. The 2.1x earnings multiple reflects a well-priced acquisition in a county where professional services businesses command consistent demand from a large base of small and mid-sized businesses.

What makes this deal stand out is the revenue-to-cash-flow ratio: the practice converts nearly 90% of revenue into discretionary earnings, signaling lean operations and minimal overhead. For a buyer with an existing accounting practice looking to expand their client base, or a solo practitioner ready to step into a turnkey operation, this is a high-efficiency business at a fair price.

Buyers should examine the client concentration — how many clients account for the majority of revenue — and the nature of services provided (tax preparation, bookkeeping, advisory). A practice with diversified services and no single client representing more than 15-20% of revenue is the ideal acquisition target. Broward County's continued population and business growth makes this a strong long-term hold.

Miami-Dade Advertising Agency: $1,095,000 Asking — 2.3x Multiple

A full-service advertising agency in Miami-Dade County is listed at $1,095,000, with $474,381 in discretionary cash flow and $1,157,093 in annual revenue. At a 2.3x earnings multiple, this is a mid-market acquisition that offers immediate scale for a buyer entering or expanding in the South Florida media and marketing space.

Miami-Dade is one of the most competitive and lucrative advertising markets in the Southeast, with demand driven by tourism, real estate, healthcare, and a dense concentration of consumer brands. An agency with over $1.1M in revenue and strong cash conversion is well-positioned to grow through additional service lines, digital expansion, or strategic client acquisition.

The ideal buyer is an experienced marketing professional, a larger agency seeking a Miami foothold, or a private equity group executing a roll-up strategy. Due diligence priorities include client contract terms and renewal rates, key employee retention, and the breakdown of revenue by client and service type. Agencies with retainer-based revenue are particularly valuable for their predictability.

Palm Beach Advertising Agency: $1,250,000 Asking — 3.1x Multiple

In Palm Beach County, an advertising agency is listed at $1,250,000 with $409,128 in discretionary cash flow and $1,546,153 in annual revenue. The 3.1x earnings multiple is slightly higher than the Miami-Dade counterpart, reflecting the premium nature of the Palm Beach market and its affluent client base.

Palm Beach County's advertising landscape is shaped by luxury real estate, high-end retail, hospitality, and wealth management — sectors that demand sophisticated, high-touch marketing services. An agency embedded in this market benefits from clients with larger budgets and longer relationships, which typically translates to higher average revenue per client and stronger retention.

This is a premium acquisition for a buyer who understands the Palm Beach market and can leverage existing relationships to grow the client roster. Strategic buyers — whether an agency group, a media company, or a well-capitalized individual — should evaluate the agency's creative capabilities, digital versus traditional revenue split, and the depth of its Palm Beach County client relationships. The revenue base of $1.55M provides meaningful room for margin improvement under new ownership.

The Bottom Line

Today's four featured deals represent a cross-section of South Florida's professional services and media sectors, from a $75,000 entry-level tax practice in Miami-Dade to a $1.25M Palm Beach advertising agency. Each listing carries verified cash flow data from the Business Brokers of Florida MLS, and each offers a different risk-return profile for buyers at different stages of their acquisition journey.
