However, it adds up quickly if you analyze the cost of turning the unit, marketing, vacancy loss, and your team's time to find a new tenant.

@Rick Albert, It seems that you're suggesting that the goal is to raise the rent to below market value to try and minimize the risk of vacancy. 

The agent will have access to the biggest platform to get the property sold though, the MLS, so forgoing even a cut rate agent will create more of a loss than the agent fees themselves. 

Learn the eviction procedure for your area, perhaps contact a lawyer in the field to help you with this one, and get the fraudster you're currently housing out on the sidewalk to sleep in a cardboard box where they belong.You're going to lose plenty of money here, but this will never happen to you again, and you can minimize your losses if you move as quickly as possible.

Look for a local credit union that can offer a cash-out refinance once the work is done, ideally with minimal seasoning.

I want to minimize my taxable income for the year.

Repairing to sell might recoup some costs, but given the market and your limited funds, selling “as-is” is likely the best option to minimize further losses.

The goal is to minimize unnecessary usage and prevent extra costs, rather than blindly paying whatever bill comes in.

It's a single family home with minimal work that needs to be done.

I think behind tenant screenings and leases there is a quality of a landlord that's also as a person that is the respect for a good person and the intelligence of making fair affairs.
For me for ten years in the past...
