Hi Colin,
What you are looking for sounds like a BUSINESS BROKER which is different than a commercial broker.
You might want to start by going to www.bizbuysell.com which is the business brokerage arm of LoopNet.
There you can put in Boston and see business listings and brokers for your area. Then you can contact them to start discussions.
It will make a difference if you are buying an existing business or you are doing a start up. The start up will be weighed on if you are doing a franchised concept or your own creation and also how much liquidity and net worth you have to get started.
