Default Kitchen sink drain vent

I'm selling my house, and the home inspector pointed out that the
kitchen drain is not vented, so the new owner (hopefully!) wants that
fixed. Isn't there a way to do that with a check-valve, or some such
easy solution??

It's been working for me for the last 4 years (despite the occasional
gurgle), and don't think it's been any different since construction in
1980... I sure don't want to do a major remodeling just to make this
sale.

Thanks,

There are code-approved under-sink vents (vacuum breakers) you can add
to the drain line. Go to any good home store and they will sell you one.
