No, a former landlord can't charge the tenants to change the locks on the property. All sorts of situations can happen between landlords and tenants when it comes to changing locks. Whether landlords change the locks or tenant changes them, both need to know what otherone can and cannot do. So all should know evrything before going to buy a property. I have some idea regarding Las Vegas Eviction Services of RocketEviction, which offers quick, efficient Nevada eviction services for apartment complex owners, high-rise condominium owners and other multi-family rentals in Clark County, Nevada.

How do you become a landlord?
Anytime you rent a home that you own to someone else you are that person's landlord. The person you are renting to is known as your tenant. There may be local or state requirements, such as licensing, etc. You can list your property on many online or printed sites. You may want to consider accepting Section 8 vouchers (Housing Choice Voucher Program) as you are likely to have better tenants, a paradox. HCVP tenants are screened and are not allowed into the program if they have a history of violent crimes or are registered sex offenders. Always have a system by which you can check your potential tenants' background. You can hire a service for this for a charge of about $30 per potential tenant, something you can charge back to the applicant as an application fee. If you do accept HCVP vouchers you can list your property with the Housing Authority in your area, increasing your chance of keeping your place occupied by good tenants.
