Chair’s Letter

Dear Members,

It’s hard to believe we’re already halfway through 2025. A lot has been happening in our industry, and from all indications, this year is shaping up to be another strong one for business sales and brokerage activity across the state.

I’d like to take a moment to congratulate all of our 2024 award winners. Your dedication, professionalism, and results continue to set the standard for excellence in our organization. On behalf of the Board, thank you for your outstanding contributions to BBF and to our industry.

Looking ahead, I’d like to personally invite all members to attend our upcoming Open Board Meeting in Orlando on Friday, September 19. There is no cost to attend, and this meeting provides a valuable opportunity to ask questions, engage directly with your board members, and make sure your voice is heard.

In exciting news, plans are already in motion for the 2026 BBF Conference, which is expected to take place in South Florida. The Conference Committee is actively reviewing potential locations to find the best fit for our members. We look forward to sharing more details soon.

Lastly, please keep an eye on your email for news about upgrades coming to our BLS system. These improvements are designed to make your work easier, more efficient, and even more impactful.

Thank you for your continued support of BBF and your dedication to raising the standards of our profession.
