Unfortunately apartments are usually not built with the future in mind. They are built to a price per unit, with even future costs to the owners often taking a back seat to initial price.

Were I building an apartment complex, I'd install a means of charging EVs and a way to bill for the service. Could be a huge advantage in the future, and a small source of additional revenue.
