    A lot of fortunate people are building granny flats for their children in Australia. Younger generations won't be able to buy their own place when they start working. Smart parents are investing in their future stability.

    You're not "monetizing your backyard" you're getting a second job as a landlord. This isn't a stock or bond you can just buy and sell whenever you want, you now have a tenant with rights on your property, with a special legal process you must go thru if you want to get rid of them. This is a new business you've entered. You really should look into landlord-tenant laws in your jurisdiction before you decide to do this (I am an attorney).

      What is your point then? Rent is also passive income, probably less risky than investing in stock market. Having say that, it adds the value to the property and could be use to house the teen kids when the house is become less and less affordable. So it does more than moneitizing

      Oxford dictionary
      Monetise: Earn revenue from
      Try earning a revenue listing, showing and renting out a property that doesn't exist. Won't happen.
      Try earning a revenue on a property without doing any listings, showings, basically nobody knows about it. Won't happen.
      Clearly it takes both components to earn rent; conducting landlord duties and also having a property to rent. Both the skill and the property are being monetised.

    Houses are for living in not for speculation lah haizzz….an island nation as big as a continent with a smaller population than Malaysia yet house prices are going through the roof with most Australian unable to afford their own landed property. This is simply because Australian politicians from both Labour and Liberal been encouraging housing market to keep on going up with their pro growth policies. Why you asked. Well because most Australian politicians themselves are property investors as well!!!

    That is not a good precedent! Make careful considerations and study what the wider implications are to the neighbours. This was illegally done by rogue landlords in many homes' backyards in the UK, resulting in many incidents of dozens of people cramped in slum conditions in the tiny flat/garage in the backyard! It will create Victorian era slums and other neighbours will suffer from people living unnecessarily close to them.

    How about utility bills? Can you separate the utility bills for the main house and the granny flat?

      What’s amazing is Mc Donald Jones can build you a 3 bedroom House for only $ 298K (Porto Home) , so in reality, no one should be charging more than $150K for a 2 bedroom granny flat, if it is a cookie cutter home…

      He should have built 3x 2 bedroom townhouses down one side of the property, because it would be more lucrative, than instead of building one, two-storey Mc Mansion, and a paupers granny flat behind it.
