The funny thing with these questions is that I linked to a certain article: https://blog.moneysavingexpert.com/2016/04/can-you-rent-out-a-home-bought-with-a-help-to-buy-isalifetime-isa/

The same article was updated with the replies and it completely changes the perspective. When I was doing research, the information in the article was different.

"Under each of the scenarios you have set out there appears to have been no intention at the point of purchase to rent out the property so we would not seek to claim back H2B ISA bonuses."

Intention

I need to make sure my intention is clear.

Cheap credit + government incentives = high property prices

More Research
I kept the question specific and to the point. There is some more research about negative interest rates and pumping prices.

This is a particular issue as we don't build enough new homes and evidence shows that in the current UK system building more doesn't bring down house prices, as they are sold as a premium product priced against existing homes on the local market.

This summer, Germany’s housing market has turned into Alice in Wonderland: the yield on five-year bonds issued by mortgage banks slid to minus 0.2 per cent, compared to a level of plus 5 per cent a decade ago.

His implication is clear: The cheaper you make mortgages — via negative interest rates for banks — the more house prices go up as the supply of buyers enjoying easy cash increases.

Different type of insurance
I saw equity protection for pension and car loans.

I saw other type of insurance related to buying a home. Home Buyer's Protection Insurance: https://hoa.org.uk/advice/guides-for-homeowners/i-am-buying/homebuyer-protection-insurance/

https://www.lighthousegroup.plc.uk/divisions/mortgage-protection/ Types of protection plans:
 * Term life assurance
 * Whole-of-life policies
 * Critical / serious illness insurance
 * Mortgage payment protection
 * Income protection
 * Accident, sickness and unemployment insurance
 * Private medical insurance
 * Buildings insurance
 * Contents insurance

So many different type of insurance but no **Equity Protection**
