Vacation property is a niche in the real estate market ealing with residences used for holiday vacations (eg. beach house). The rapid development of the Internet and technologies such as telephony and personal digital assistants that allow people to work from home since circa 1995 has blurred the division between vacation property and a primary residence. Some business people, including the British entrepreneur Richard Branson, use their luxury real estate for both business and leisure purposes. In the United Kingdom this type of property is usually termed a holiday home, while in the United States the most common designation is second home.
