There are hundreds of businesses for you to choose from in the Central Florida area with prices ranging from $40,000 to $Millions. Not all of these businesses will be suitable for you; and not all of them will enable you to qualify for a visa. You may want to continue in your present line of work or you may want a complete change. Whatever your desire, there is a business waiting for you in Florida.

Our International Director/Business Intermediary of Hadleigh International in conjunction with the Central Florida Real Estate Connection, Inc., Business Division will conduct a personal consultation with you to learn about your talents, skills, and desires, matching you with those businesses that are appropriate for you.

All information from business owners is confidential; therefore, you will need to review and sign a "Confidentiality Agreement" prior to our divulging information about any business opportunity. Once you have decided to follow this route, we will work with you to find a suitable business.

Once a business is found, then negotiations begin with discussion of price, terms, Real Estate (if any is involved), lease conditions or even relocation of the business.

Our role is to find you a suitable business that meets your requirements and satisfy the Immigration and Naturalization Service guidelines for your residency. Our consultants are licensed and knowledgeable in these aspects, and will be able to find suitable businesses for you to consider, as well as assist you in your negotiations with the seller.

Numerous businesses are available upon application.

Most businesses, when purchased, are on an “all cash” basis. However, some owners may help you finance the business and hold a small “promissory note”. After all, if the owner is willing to give you a loan on his existing business it is a good sign of his confidence that the business is successful and that you are the person to operate it. Some Commercial financing is available if you are not a US citizen or Green Card Holder; or if you have not resided long enough to build up credit. Again, we can help you with this process.

Many people have successfully moved to Florida and now enjoy a fantastic lifestyle, which they can only find in this beautiful State. For those who wish to invest in the American economy, which is one of the strongest in the world, but do not wish to actively participate in the running or administration of a business, there are a number of investment opportunities which may allow you to quality for a visa, and give you a generous return on your investment. An example of this would be buying into a share of a shopping mall or other such investments. There are other passive investments particularly relevant for those who wish to “retire” to Florida, to enjoy the lifestyle without the investment of time and effort in a business of their own.

Business opportunities abound in the USA. However, our expertise is to help YOU make the right choice. If you would like further details and a personal consultation to discuss how we can turn your plans in to reality, contact us. We'll be happy to answer any of your questions about investing in Florida..."the Sunshine State".
