Default House painting - price estimate

I’m trying to get an idea of how much it would cost to have a house
painted (outside.) This is in the Denver Metro.
A couple of pics of the house:

It is a 1966 ranch, brick walls, so we’re talking about the soffit,
the part around the roof, door frames, misc wood trim here and there,
you get the idea. The house is 1,400 sq ft, plus an attached 2-car
garage.

I know it’s hard to give an estimate given the above vague
description, but I’m looking for a ballpark number, so I’m an informed
customer when I meet with the painter to get an estimate.

TIA,

Nobody knows the condition of the paint so nobody can bid it, but it
seems you dont care about a quality job and think its only just paint
that it needs. There isnt much to paint, who knows about prep.Those
bushes and trees are ugly, hide everything, make work expensive and
keep in moisture, do some work.
