Empire Flippers vets listings heavily, rejecting roughly 90% of applicants, and reports selling over 2,300 businesses worth more than $530 million total.
Its self-reported success rate has ranged across sources and time periods, from around 71-72% to figures near 94%, so treat any single number cautiously since methodology and reporting periods vary. Roughly a quarter to a third of listings historically don’t sell within the listing period.
Businesses that do sell tend to be higher-earning, well-documented sites and stores, since the curated marketplace favors quality listings, and average sale multiples have reportedly climbed into the high-20x range on trailing profit in recent reporting.
