Change locks between tenants?
Just curious what others are doing with door locks. Do you automatically change locks with every turnover? Do you never change locks? Do you only change if there is evidence that previous tenant(s) may not be trusted or you have suspicious feelings about them?
Any thoughts on this?

I always change locks. Seems like a big liability not to. I put old locks and key in freezer size zip lock bags and save. After awhile, you never buy new locks, you just rotate from property to property.
