Business Brokerage & M&A Advisory in Broward County
For over four decades, Amerivest has guided Broward County business owners through sales, acquisitions, and valuations — anchored by Fort Lauderdale’s marine industry and Port Everglades trade activity, and reaching into Coral Springs, Weston, and Deerfield Beach.
COUNTY MARKET
Serving the Broward County market
Fort Lauderdale’s working waterfront is one of the more distinctive features of the Broward County economy, supporting boat builders, marine service companies, and yacht brokerages that draw buyers from well outside the state. Port Everglades adds another layer, with logistics, freight, and trade-related businesses clustered around the port.
Inland, Coral Springs and Weston have built out substantial professional services and corporate employment bases, while Deerfield Beach and Pompano Beach carry a strong mix of retail, hospitality, and trades businesses — a market with real depth across price points, from six-figure service businesses to multi-million dollar logistics and marine operations.

I purchased a wholesale company through Amerivest Group, and after trying to work with four different brokers before, the difference with Alberto Salazar was huge. He was professional, patient, and never pushy. He genuinely cared about making sure we got the best deal possible. I highly recommend Amerivest and Alberto for anyone looking to buy or sell a business.

He had 3 buyers within less than 2 weeks. All was sold and settled in less than 3 months. Money in the bank, happy customers on both sides and best of all, David is very pleasant and likeable besides knowing his business. Any of my needs or questions were answered quickly without excuses. I think he did anything needed and quickly with good communication. I highly recommend David Kammet.

I first met Alberto Hallivis when I called Amerivest to broker the sale of our company in the spring of 2015. We met for coffee and, what began as an interview of his potential to represent us, quickly transitioned to his appraising our goals, value and marketability. As in our relationship ever since, that day he assessed our business with frankness and clarity and partnered with us in the sale. Alberto is completely trustworthy and on more one occasion put our interests above his own. I consider him a business partner and a friend. I recommend him to any person wanting to market their company for sale, Alberto will guide and use the many tools at his disposal to see the venture thru to a happy conclusion.

Alberto played a key role throughout the entire process of searching for, evaluating, selecting, and ultimately acquiring two stores through the service provided by Amerivest Group. His support was fundamental—not only helping us clearly understand each step’s implications but also establishing a structured process, identifying critical variables, and skillfully guiding the negotiation through to a successful closing. We felt thoroughly supported at every stage. Alberto’s clarity on the technical, legal, and strategic aspects of the transaction was instrumental in minimizing risk and ensuring a seamless handover of both stores. In our experience, Alberto added tremendous value, and we are sincerely grateful for his professionalism, commitment, and expertise. Thanks to his leadership, the acquisition of both stores was a complete success.
