District Court of Appeal of Florida January 19, 1994, No. 92-3619 (Edelstein v. Flanagan)

KLEIN, Judge.

We hold that a real estate broker who finds a buyer for a business does not become a “dealer” within the meaning of Chapter 517, as a result of the buyer and seller structuring the transaction as a sale of the corporate stock. We therefore affirm the denial of relief under Chapter 517.
