High street retail shops are still in demand today where investors, who still have an appetite for commercial property, are looking for low risk investment opportunities.

Those people who own high street retail shops which are freehold, let to good covenants on long leases and which are worth less than £500,000 have a very saleable commodity which will generate strong investor demand, even in the face of falling property prices and a fragile economy.

As long as these property owners do not price themselves out of the market by seeking to achieve far in excess of what their properties are worth, they should stand a very good chance of selling their high street retail shops.
