• Business listing name
• Location
• Asking price
• Cash flow
• Revenue
• EBITDA
• Description
• URL
• Broker contact details (names, phones, emails)
• And more

Input

• startUrls: Use listing URLs (e.g., https://www.bizbuysell.com/Business-Opportunity/profitable-online-art-business-for-sale-home-based/2265003/) or search URLs (e.g., https://www.bizbuysell.com/california-businesses-for-sale/?q=bHQ9MzAsNDAsODA%3D). Add filters on BizBuySell’s search page, then copy the URL here.
• maxItems: Set the maximum number of items to scrape from search URLs. For everything, use a high number like 99999.
