Not all properties are over a hundred years old. Many new shopping areas are built, especially alongside new housing developments.
What idiots are going to lend to a potential small business, especially ones of the type with a high failure rate. With homes, the funding for repayments is already in place, ie salaries.
Many businesses don't make enough to run with zero rent, so paying off a mortgage is just not going to happen.
Still leaves, who pays for the upkeep, especially common areas in a centre.
