Having done this in the past, what I would do is build on Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, or another platform and run the monthly billing through you (and double the price to make money on monthly hosting). If you ever decide you don't want to deal with hosting/support anymore, it will be easy to hand it off to someone else (just change the billing and access info).
In the past I built custom sites using React/Rails/etc. and when I wanted to stop support/hosting it was a huge PITA because handing off a custom codebase is difficult and time consuming. You have to find another developer, help them transfer the code or servers, help them get it running, etc. If you build on another platform you don't have to worry about this.
