How do private homes keep vampires out in Buffy? Something in their make-up won't allow them to cross unless invited to do so.

It's not a spell cast on the vampires or the houses - it's just part of what they are. Thats not really a good comparison. The vampires on tvd are wholly magical creatures. They were created by magic and the not being able to cross into a house is a side effect of the magic used to create them
