Left field comment. Get a condenser dryer. We built a house a few years back and the cost of adding a vent was going to be $500-$1000 ( thicker walls, cabinetry strengthened, external vent etc ).
We were planning on getting new appliances anyway so the price diff to a condenser dryer was less than that to put a vent in. Saves on electricity too.
Edit: I live in Australia so the cost of doing anything is 5x for building stuff.
