My prediction: Businesses will spring up which offer to install chargers at an approachable cost (or even free) in mom-and-pop apartment complexes, with no fuss for the landlord. In return they'll take a big cut from the rate charged to the end-user, which will be much higher than the power company. Variations on this model might charge the property owner a monthly fee instead, or even squeeze both sides; the important thing is it won't be something that smaller landlords have to manage directly, so even if it's a cost they might opt for it, to be competitive (should the rental market ever swing back) or to meet local regulations. There are already enterprises with this model in things like billing, direct management, maintenance, etc.
