At this point, the game plan is to use a TSP-based solution to wash the ceilings & walls as thoroughly as possible to remove the nicotine/tar buildup, two coats of oil-based Killz primer on the ceilings & walls and then paint. 

Definitely echo the sentiments that $0 money investing is much more myth and marketing snake oil than being plausible.Closest thing I know to quick easy funding is a 0 fee, 0% credit card balance transfer but not everyone can command 30K plus credit limits and I wouldnt recommend that path unless you are equipped to handle that debt once the promotional APR expires
