Shore Management, Inc.
We are a small - medium sized residential property management company in San Diego, CA. Most of the properties we manage are in Mission Beach, Pacific Beach, La Jolla, Ocean Beach, and Point Loma. (All near beaches). We are positioning ourselves to attract properties owners with high-end properties and we need a site design to show that.
Shore Management, Inc. Has been in business since 1999.
Our target audience is income-property owners with $1,000,000+ properties in the La Jolla, CA and other beach community areas in San Diego.
We need 2 pages designed, the homepage and a property detail page.
Some things to remember:
1) We are in the residential property management business and we try to attract clients with high-end rentals.
2) This is business website and not a blog.
3) When designing this site, ask yourself, would I want to have my rental managed by these people?
4) We love dynamic elements. Feel free to use any javascript/jQuery elements. If you can design it, we can code.
5) Please use a fixed width of 960px.
6) Please submit layered photoshop designs.
** We ask that you consider using jQuery and Javascript design elements, you will not be required to do/provide and code for those elements. We will take care of all the coding.

The home page:
should showcase some of the properties we have using some kind of image slider/rotator. The majority of this page should be geared towards marketing to our target market. There should however be a small part where there is a list of available properties for rent.
The property detail page:
will need to show detail of the properties like # of bedroom, bathrooms, etc. For inspiration on the property detail page check out http://www.apartments.com/cvcommuni…#Amenities

Color Schemes:
See attached logo. We like gray and white gradients with highlights of blue. Huge bonus points for submitting multiple color schemes.
Feel free to use any images on the current website or any stock photos to mock up your design. Be creative and have fun. I look forward to seeing what you come up with!
Keep it clean and simple like the listingpress design attached.
Some of our competitors. (Whose designs I DON’T like, but will give you an idea of what kind of business we do)
