I can't think of a legal theory taht would make a landlord responsible for a motor vehicle accident of his tenants. One would think the perpetrator car would have some damage also. Other than some detective work, or an admission from a tenants as to who had an accident that night, I think you are in the same place as anybody else would be with a hit and run. ( one lawyer's opinion, sorry) Think of it like this, say you had 200 units apartment complex, and everybody had to share driveway and parking psaces, a person comes out and finds that either another tenant or their guest must have hit your car; the aprtment corp, would not be responsible for the driving habits of tenants or their guests
