About Tavernier

Tavernier is an Upper Keys community between Key Largo and Islamorada, with a historic village feel along US-1, Tavernier Creek and a mix of year-round residents, seasonal owners and small businesses serving the Upper Keys.

Selling in the Keys

Selling a business in the Keys has its own considerations. Many Keys businesses depend on seasonal visitor traffic, a limited local labor pool and workforce housing, and supplies that arrive by truck along US-1, so buyers will ask how the business handles the off-season, hurricane preparation and shutdown periods, and whether key employees live locally. Windstorm, flood and business-interruption insurance can be a significant cost, and buyers usually review it closely. Marine and waterfront properties add permitting and environmental questions. Gathering these details early makes the process smoother for you and for a buyer.

Licensing, permits and the transition

Welding businesses typically rely on individual certifications such as AWS. Mobile and structural work may need additional licensing depending on scope.

Tavernier is unincorporated, so businesses generally need a Monroe County business tax receipt but no separate city receipt, and building permits and contractor licensing run through Monroe County.
