Condensation is caused by humidity and the temperature in/of the air. Too low a temperature and too high a humidity. It'll form on the coldest surface.

There's not much you can do with single glazing, the temperature differential is going to be too high. Also if the building is listed or in a conservation zone there's not always a lot the landlord can do.

You can request for secondary glazing to be installed. This introduces a poor version of double glazing. It'll reduce the condensation, but not remove it. The was a plan where you could request these under an energy efficiency regulation, but covid fucked them. It's worth requesting.

Who's your agent btw? I might have dealings with those that are factors. The other thing is does your building have many owner/occupiers? Trying to get a communal project to replace the windows lead by your factor might be a sneaky way to get leverage over your landlord, by way of the other owners.
