I would prefer not to get a new body, because I already have a few telephoto lenses for this camera that I bought when I went on safari...
I've shot a few open houses and I found that the Nikkor 20mm (D800 FX) was perfectly wide, without looking all fish eye with horribly stretched and distorted images.
Also, a few of my outdoor architectural shots have been published and those were with a D90 and Tokina 11-16mm.

I would look at the widest Olympus lens (minus fish eye) and maybe rent it from the camera store (or your local shop).

Found these two.
