Even when tenants return every key, you can't know what was copied. Re-keying between tenancies protects your incoming tenant and removes the argument entirely. We time the visit to the void period, can re-pin rather than replace where hardware allows (cheaper and just as secure), and fit key-retaining cylinders in communal areas so keys can't be left in locks.
