If You just got the keys to a house you bought.
Then Rekey every exterior door to one new key.
The seller, their agent and any tradesperson who held a copy are now locked out, and you carry a single key. Lock Rekeying
Locks for shops, offices and buildings: rekeying at turnover, commercial-grade hardware, exit devices, master key systems and access control.
Commercial
Services here appear in the order a business tends to need them: a lockout or a lost key first, then rekeying, then a master system, then exit hardware and access control as the premises grow and the staff list lengthens.

Which fix fits?
Tap a situation. The answer opens here.
If You are renting, and the landlord says the locks were never changed.
Then Ask the landlord to have the locks rekeyed.
Tenants generally need the owner's agreement, and most landlords are glad to do it when asked plainly.
If A tenant moved out and did not return every key.
Then Rekey before the next tenant arrives.
It keeps the same hardware and closes the gap before viewings start. Lock Rekeying
