Denise Houghtaling

With a strong background in business brokerage and M&A, I specialize in helping business owners successfully sell their businesses at top value. My expertise spans various industries, including property management, personal and business services, heavy equipment, land clearing, roll-off dumpster operations, and more. Having personally owned and sold multiple businesses, I understand the complexities of the selling process and the importance of positioning a business to attract qualified buyers. Over the years, I have built a reputation for delivering results. I have successfully closed numerous deals, with most selling at or above asking price. My ability to navigate financials, valuations, and market trends ensures that sellers receive maximum value for their businesses. For buyers, I provide comprehensive due diligence support, helping them identify strong investment opportunities that align with their goals. Beyond traditional business sales, I bring extensive experience in structuring deals, negotiating favorable terms, and managing transactions from start to finish. My knowledge of SBA financing, seller financing, and deal structuring allows for smoother transactions and better outcomes for all parties involved. I also have access to a vast network of qualified buyers, private equity groups, and strategic investors looking for new opportunities. As a Certified Business Intermediary (CBI), I adhere to the highest industry standards. I am also a member of the Business Brokers of Florida (BBF) and utilize the BBF MLS to maximize exposure for my listings. Whether you're looking to sell your business, acquire a new one, or explore exit strategies, I offer expert guidance and a results-driven approach to ensure a successful transaction.
