Vinyl Siding a 3 unit Property

[Raymond Hill]

Hello BP Community, 

I am going to see a property this weekend. I drove by and notice that the siding needs to be painted. I was talking with a contracter who said that your better off vinyl siding the property for less maintenance. I wanted your opinion on this matter, I am not sure what the best thing will be I can see that painting should be much less than vinyl siding due to the shear work needed. I watched my neighbor vinyl side his property and it took about 2-3 weeks to complete. I plan on using it as a rental property house hack then move out and have the cash flow raking in. Any thoughts?
