Now that the temperature outside has dropped, the windows start to accumulate water vapor. I am assuming that it might also lead to that black stuff forming. Is there a more efficient way of dealing with the condensate than wiping it dry every day?

Yep, this. This is also extremely important to keep in mind when retrofitting triple pane windows in older houses. Moving the condensation to the walls doesn’t do you any favors, in that case you’d have to add isolation to the walls as well.
And that’s how we got mould this year 🙌 Hopefully the owner will isolate the walls next year…
I wouldn’t wait until they get moving. I’d try to find an agreement with them, where I’d pay for a dehumidifier and have them pay the electricity for that or something along those lines. Mold is directly bad for your health but also for their property value.
