You can actually use lumber and drywall to make a new ceiling... you can use some variant of acoustic tiles... could even use beadboard if you want something that looks more period correct.However you decide to do it the winning pieces is having them install sound deadening insulation like QuietZone or Safe-n-Sound in the gap between your false ceiling and the original ceiling.

I would focus on areas with growing inventory and a pattern of price drops in the last ~90 days.As for the out of state options, I'd narrow the search to landlord friendly states like TX, FL, GA, TN, etc. 

They are roofing tiles.

Sal, remove the tiles and prime the walls with Zinssers Gardz.

IMO, the traffic patterns to Disney and Downtown Orlando are something to consider as they can be more congested even though the distance is similar to the Bella Collina drive.

However, while I was succumbing to shiny object syndrome (admiring the fancy new kitchen, new hardware, and beautifully tiled bathrooms), my agent was crawling around in the basement crawlspaces, collecting cobwebs and assessing the plumbing.

He paints, lays tiles, some basic handyman type electrical and plumbing and really anything or he will find someone who can do it. 

At the same time, take little side projects on yourself (tile a bathroom/install cabinets/frame a new partition wall) and learn from doing.

Had to get custom locks and learn how to do that since the locksmith wanted $1500 alone because of the odd dimensions and backsetDemoed the interior and single handedly filled two flat bed dumpsters, need atleast 1 more for the trash still present replaced the wood siding and framing for one of the balconies, will be laying down the epdm waterproofing this weekBought a few french doors from craigslist, which happened to be the exact size I neededinstalled a new cross beam section (old one was rotted and sagging) above the old 4 panel french doorsI also removed the stucco from most of the house and am putting up new plywood and homewrap on as much as I can, keeping in mind the bottom portions will need to be replaced due to the sill plate/foundation issuesReplacing the fascia as I come to it with PVC AzekI also have some tile, toilets, chandelier/lighting, and various other components I need but have not started to use yet.

Had to turn it over and scope of work was similar to yours, however I used real tile, brand new fridge, new toilet, repainted the entire home and cleaned top to bottom 5,400 out the door.
