You will issue a work order to the locksmith upon the property renting to have the exterior locks changed two days prior to the resident’s scheduled move in. The locksmith will re-key one lock on each exterior door for security purposes.

The reason you wait to have the re-key completed just prior to the move in is due to possible vendors, owners, etc. having the keys checked out during the vacancy period. This ensures the security of the home that the new resident will have the only access to the home besides the key kept in our master file.
