Vampires are older than property law, I think the power that keeps them out comes from physically dwelling in the place. As long as they're still living there, regardless of what a judge decided, it's their home as far as a vampire is concerned. Otherwise they could just ask each other for permission to enter someone else's house. I'm trying to remember if this came up in Buffy...

It is still YOUR house bc you live and sleep and eat there

But that's kinda the flaw in all of it. If I live with other people, any one of them can let the vampire in, but he never got permission from me then it's not about individual permission.

If we say anyone with authority over the space can let someone in, then that would probably extend to the law or property owners.

To quote myself: "Vampires are older than property law, I think the power that keeps them out comes from physically dwelling in the place." Just my take on it, I have no references to cite.
