Siding Before You Sell Your Home

The exterior is the first thing buyers see. Here is which siding updates make a visible difference and which do not.

Buyers form an impression of a home before they step inside, and siding does a lot of the talking. Clean, straight, well-kept siding suggests a house that has been cared for. Stains, cracks, wavy panels and peeling paint raise doubts about what else might be neglected, and those doubts often show up in the offer or the inspection list.

Not every house needs new siding to sell. Often the best return comes from small, focused work: a soft wash to remove algae, repairs to damaged panels and trim, fresh caulk, a painted front door and shutters or a single accent in shake or board and batten. We help sellers and agents decide what is worth doing based on the condition of the house, the price range and how long the listing is likely to take.
