As the UK sails dangerously close to a recession, many investors are selling supermarkets.

In the past, these types of properties have been very popular and have been regarded as a safe investment. However, nothing is now safe or recession proof especially as property values have an inverse relationship with interest rates which are rising and which many believe could be close to 3.5% by the end of the year. If this happens, there will be lots of forced sellers, lots of people selling supermarkets and lots of properties flooding the market. The commercial property market will crash and many will suffer significant losses.
