Despite some markets seeing improved affordability, many regions are still grappling with affordability constraints. The ongoing outperformance of cheaper markets underscores this trend, with the lower quartile of combined capital cities rising by 2.7% in the three months to August, compared to a mere 0.3% lift across the upper quartile.

Affordability pressures are particularly evident in larger capital cities, where housing values are becoming increasingly difficult for average households to manage in the wake of elevated interest rates and rising living costs. As the market shifts towards lower price segments, it's crucial to keep an eye on these affordability metrics.

With the rise of fraudulent schemes targeting investors, it’s crucial to know what to look out for. Here are five types of scams that you should be aware of:

• Fake Cryptocurrency Offers: Scammers exploit the complexity of crypto markets to offer “insider tips” or “guaranteed returns” through fake platforms. Be cautious—once your money is gone, it’s nearly impossible to recover.

• Ponzi and Pyramid Schemes: These rely on new investor money to pay earlier investors, creating a cycle that eventually collapses. There’s no real investment—just an illusion that ends in financial loss.

• Unlicensed Investment Advisers: These individuals contact people out of the blue, offering deals in stocks, bonds, or foreign exchange. They often present fake credentials, websites, or documents to seem legitimate.

• Wealth Creation Schemes: Often found on social media or online webinars, these scams promise fast, large returns through “exclusive opportunities.” In reality, they’re just a way to trick people into handing over their money.

• Fake IPOs (Initial Public Offerings): Scammers lure investors by presenting “rare” opportunities to buy shares in a company that’s supposedly about to go public. The company often doesn’t exist, and the offers are entirely fabricated.

Scammers are increasingly sophisticated, but you can stay ahead by following these safety steps:

• Spot the Red Flags: Be cautious of unsolicited offers, urgent requests, or “guaranteed” returns. These are all common signs of a scam.

• Pause and Process: If something seems too good to be true, take a step back. Investment decisions should never be rushed.

• Verify the Source: Conduct your own independent research and verify the legitimacy of any opportunity.

• Cross-Check Credentials: Ensure that anyone providing investment advice has a valid Australian Financial Services Licence. Check this information on ASIC’s website.

• Get a Second Opinion: If something doesn’t feel right, consult a trusted advisor or reach out to a reputable investment firm, like Altitude X.
