Hello Experts! I recently purchased a house and know it will need a
new paint job within the coming year. I would rather install vinyl
siding and be done with it. I will not be doing the job myself, but am
curious to find out how much something like this would cost. I would
rather pay a bit more for a better job, but I don't want to pay a
fortune. What would a fair price be for this kind of job? Here is a
picture of the property:

Note: I did purchase both sides of the duplex and will not be covering
the brick on the front.

On the presumption that you purchased the house in the first photo,
my compliments on buying a very nice looking house. *I'd paint.
Vinyl siding has a cheap look. *If you really do not want to paint
every 7 to 10 years, get aluminum siding.

Now if we're discussing the house in photos 2 thru 11, WTF were you
thinking when you bought this barn. *My first thought was "Too bad
arson is a felony with no statute of limitations."

Yes, your assumption is correct. I did buy the house in the first
picture. The rest were shots of a house before it was demolished.

If I lived in the property, I would have no problem painting it, this
is merely an investment with both sides generating rental income. I
need something that will last, look good, and will require minimal
maintenance. I will get quotes for both vinyl and aluminum and proceed
from there. Thanks for the reply!
