Most times I've seen it, permission can be given by any resident. Ownership doesn't play a part at all. So I would guess a land lord can't give permission.
Also I recall one example of permission being required for entering an apartment, but not the building. Though in that case the vampire in question was living in annother apartment in the same building.
What about somebody who is in the home but not a resident? For example a partygoer at a house party inviting a vampire in.
A door mat can invite a vampire in, as seen in Renfield.
The doormat has no agency of its own, and is an expression of the owner, chosen and placed deliberately by the owner.
What about a sublet tenant in one room of a home? Can the home owner give permission for the vampire to enter that room, or is it a separate entity for purposes of needing permission?
In my living situation there is a keycoded entry on the front of the apartment building. What about that? If I never gave the vampire my entry code am I just immune to vampires? My landlord gives maintenance workers the code, but in that case if one of them were vampires I wouldnt have been the one to invite them in, right? There's definitely layers to this I have never considered before.
