The most cost-effective solution, by far, is the Olympus 9mm f/8.0 body cap lens. It can be had for about $80 or less. I can't believe nobody has mentioned it yet.

The image quality is surprisingly good for a "toy" lens--just look at Robin Wong's review. (I don't know if I'm allowed to link his review, but a quick Google search will find it.) Assuming you don't need professional photography for a multi-million dollar listing, the output should be more than sufficient for your realtor's uses.

... or one of the add-on "wide angle adapter" auxiliary lenses.
