People do this on https://flippa.com

But most of the sites are junky WordPress sites. And people pay a couple hundred dollars depending on the setup and the niche.

If you can build a flexible back end, then you could find entrepreneurs willing to pay thousands or tens of thousands to have it customized.

So, would you rather sell 100 $200 "as is" sites, or 1 $20k custom site?

I'd be interested in that too. As far as I can see, there are websites on offer but they are all finished. Where is the customization part?

No, Flippa is for finished sites. Finding a client and building what they want can generate you thousands in revenue.
