nothing like returning to my dwelling and realizing it has been taken over by the most vile, disgusting colony of mold i have ever seen

Long-term: wood floors, doors/door jambs, cabinets, etc. will warp and even if they don't *require* fix/replacement, value is lost.
-
Short-term: paint will deteriorate and chip/peel much faster with humidity (& esp changes in humidity). And of course mold/mildew.
-
Annual cost of AC for me is probably about $600 (obviously higher for you, but also more rapid damage from humidity).
-
Even if it took 10 years for paint to reach awful condition, having it done right would cost more than the $6000 spent on AC.
-
And on top of that you have damage to the wood floors (likely becoming squeaky from warping & impossible to fix without replacing).
-
Unfortunately the apartment already has very f*cked up paint and squeaky floors. It doesn't help how it's unoccupied 9+ months of the year.
-
Yeah, the math doesn't really work when it's already slum property that's lost much of its value just being milked for rental... ;-)
-
In that case the only thing you can probably count is cost of mold removal, which is going to be high too...
