Rehab Exterior Siding
Hey everyone quick question. We are looking at rehabbing a house and the current siding is lap siding. It does have some damage, but it can be repainted and repaired. We are doing a BRRRR strategy with this property. My question is does siding increase the value during the appraisal process very much? Our budget is aimed to improve the kitchen, bathrooms, and increase living area. To reside the entire thing would be a big time and capital investment. If it hardly affects the appraisal we are strongly considering repainting and repairing the current siding. What do you all think. Any help is greatly appreciated.
