Online Businesses for Sale: Empire Flippers & QuietLight

Online businesses for sale data from Empire Flippers and QuietLight

How to scrape online businesses for sale

1. Pick the sources (both are selected by default).
2. Set Max items to cap how many listings you get, and pay for.
3. Optionally set a price range, include sold listings for comps, or turn on Only new listings and schedule the Actor to get a daily feed of new deals.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape these listings?

The Actor collects only factual listing data that the marketplaces publish openly, such as price and revenue, and links every record back to its source. It reads pages that the sites' robots.txt files allow, uses Empire Flippers' public listings endpoint, and does not log in or get around bot protection. It skips descriptions and photos. Check that your own use fits the sites' terms.

How fresh is the data?

Each run fetches live data. Schedule it daily with Only new listings turned on to get only listings you have not seen before.

How many listings can I get?

Up to the number currently published on the two marketplaces. In one Oct 30, 2026 run that was 279 available listings (194 Empire Flippers, 85 QuietLight). Max items defaults to 100.

Some fields are empty. Why?

Marketplaces publish different fields. QuietLight often omits asking price and multiple, for example, so those come back as null.

Can I use it in my app or with AI agents?

Yes. Call it through the Apify API, export to CSV, JSON or Excel, or connect it to AI agents through the Apify MCP server.

Where can I search these listings by chat?

At MainStreetKeys, which also offers saved searches and daily email alerts.
