Top down bottom up shades instead of window blinds
We just bought a property (the B of BRRRR), Rehabbed it (R), and are renting (R) it. It came to light that it's best to provide window shades or screens in a rental, or the tenant may damage the wall trying to hang their own. I use these top down bottom up cellular shades in my office and they provide privacy or a view of the sky, plus I don't have to deal with those cords. I got them inexpensively from Home Depot, sized to fit my window exactly, they hold up well, and prospective tenants viewing the property LOVE them. In their rental application they listed it as one of their favorite things.
