Same with closet doors, off the hinges half the time in rentals.So replacing screens can get old (but you can offset the deposit as it is hard to dispute a missing or broken screen).On the bright side, if you go to the big box store, they sell screen making kits (e.g, I don't bother looking for pre-made screens in just the right size or overpaying a window store to make them); the kits can be helpful for landlords.So you buy the kit, some screen mesh (this is more expensive, but buy a big roll if you will be in rentals for the long haul), and you will need a hacksaw and a little screen spline tool (a little roller).

That said, a Checkbook IRA LLC is a great tool, and you should speak with someone knowledgeable about these plans to help you determine which will be the better fit for your situation and goals.Fidelity and all of the mainstream brokerages offer Solo 401(k) plans, but those plans will be limited to stock market investing and not self-directed with the capacity to invest in real estate.There are several providers such as Accuplan that offer truly self-directed Solo 401(k) plans.

While there are free tools like Craigslist that can be effective for marketing a property, other avenues like newspapers, real estate websites or property management companies will come at a cost.
