It's possible there might already be power nearby somewhere and adding a 120v plug isn't that complicated. If they can't put it on it's own meter, you might need to enter into some agreement with the owner where you show them your cars monthly charging and then pay them accordingly, or they might do a fixed rate.
There are options there.
It really comes down to the owner and how much of a dick they want to be.
Its not complicated but it wouldn't be cheap to pay an electrician to properly install an outlet out to the parking lot. If you own the condo it would be worth it probably but paying out of pocket for a rental units infrastructure I don't see paying off for the prospective electric car owner.
Its always way more work than people expect to "just install a new plug here" in an existing and finished place. I would say the solution here is to require rental property owners to start supplying outlets to parking lots.
Maybe I'm wrong. People should get a quote for getting it done if they're interested. But I think it'll be surprisingly pricy in most places.
