Startup offers to build studio apartments in homeowners' backyards and split the rental income

[Skeptic]

That’s maybe a little dishonest from Techcrunch. Had to look elsewhere to see that they have a lien on your property, not just in “the unit”. This is really what sinks this idea to my mind.

As far as I can tell from this thread, the lien is on the unit, not the lot.

Rent the Backyard (YC S19) wants to build a studio apartment in your yard

Do you have a link to something with more detail?
