Look at areas around aberdeen proving grounds ( Harford county) Huge military installation.

Coupling a monetization loan with an installment sale may also reduce the tax cost of selling a highly appreciated asset and it puts money in your pocket that can be reinvested...

So far have replaced drop ceilings and wood paneling with smooth painted surfaces, replaced brass fixtures and hardware with brushed nickel, installed high efficiency toilets and shower heads.

Raking  with a metal fan rake. not sure if the shop vac will do it but it is worth a try.

I personally hate knockdown cabinets such as IKEA, I've also heard some marble and granite companies won't install over knockdown cabinets.

I used to work on Hotels and what we would do between rooms for the most sound proof wall assembly was have two layers of gypsum (mostly for fire protection) on each side and then stager 2" metal studs (4" thick wall total) with insulation wrapped between. 

The property already had a new roof, updated electric and plumbing installed throughout so all that's really needed now are cosmetic updates.

The bottom unit is where I wanted to live and during my two week vacation installed hot water heater, plumbed, rewired, flooring, paint and electric baseboard heaters.

Honestly at this point I think my best bet is finding an owner with no mortgage interested in an installment sale.
