Meanwhile, does your apartment come with any off-road parking (communal parking)? If so, maybe approach the management company to ask if they would consider installing charging facilities. It would be wise for them to look into this, as more and more residents get EVs
I approached my Management Company for my (Share of Freehold) property and they got 3 quotes for charging infrastructure installation.
Unfortunately, at the moment, the terms were quite onerous and rather opaque - a 25 year contract(!), £12 monthly subscription for each user (property owner) to access the charging unit, and an electricity unit rate of £0.28 for 7kw chargers.
The questions the Management Company were left with could be divided between those things in their control and those things out of their control.
Our head lease does not provide for allocated parking spaces - so the MC couldn't technically "exclude" ICE residents from parking in the charging bays. Apparently the head lease is expensive and time consuming to alter.
The MC didn't want to commit to a 25 year contract during the 'early adoption' stage of electric car conversion.
Different (lower) charging prices were offered for residents if the MC allowed access to the chargers to non residents - however there was no way of knowing if we would be overwhelmed with non residents, and no mention of how to change the terms of the contract if we were.
It was not clear how upgrades to the charging units would be paid for or how often - was that the MC responsibility or the supplier.
It wasn't clear who oversaw the electricity unit price - there were insufficient assurances within the contract terms.
It wasn't clear how the monthly fee was calculated or regulated - could the £12 suddenly increase.
It wasn't clear how quickly the provider would deal with physically broken units, offline occurrences, and so on - would we be left with unusable charging units for extended (or even indefinite) periods.
All in all, I had to agree that the MC were correct to advise using an abundance of caution and their recommendation was to wait until this side of the supply market levelled out; there were just too many unknowns and they had no confidence in the suppliers. Of course, no issue is insurmountable but I'm sure there are similar questions being asked up and down the country by Management Companies.
