I don't understand what your are doing. If you are inheriting from Property models in Apartment just remove OneToOneField and your save method would be
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.property_type = 'Apartment'
super().save(*args, **kwargs)
But if you really want to use OneToOneField, replace Property inherit with models.Model and your save method should look like this.
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.property_id.property_type = 'Apartment'
self.property_id.save()
super().save(*args, **kwargs)
For 2nd case you can also use django signal
from django.db.models.signal import post_save
# ...
def populate_property_type(sender, created, instance, **kwargs):
if sender.__name__ == 'Apartment':
instance.property_id.property_type = 'Apartment'
instance.property_id.save()
# condition for Villa
post_save.connect(populate_property_type, sender=Apartment)
post_save.connect(populate_property_type, sender=Villa)

I would suggest that you should add field in Appartment table with the name appartment_type and remove property_type from Property. But If you don't want to do that then Two ways are possible for your case.
1.When you are adding values from Django admin, you should also add the property_type from Admin.In that case you don't need to override save method. Register your Property and Appartment Table in one view. Make the admin Tables of Property and Appartment for admin view. Then register it like this way i-e
admin.site.register(PropertyAdmin, AppartmentAdmin)
and add values into both tables.
2: Simply override the save method and add this
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.property_id.property_type = 'Apartment' # you should add other field in Appartment table just avoid hard coded 'Apartment'
self.property_id.save()
super().save(*args, **kwargs)
