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

Practically every house near me that had a garden, now has a small house at the end, although many of those started off as a garage. I don’t know how many of these are rented by the owners of the house, or if they sold the land to a developer, or what. A single car garage that could potentially get planning permission is worth more than I could afford.
EG, this road near me. Every one of those buildings used to be an empty back garden (well, a hundred years ago they were empty gardens, but various garages and workshops have appeared over the decades).
