Do you think that changing the exterior wood to vinyl would add value to a property?

Are there even any advantages of having a wood exterior?What are the cons?

Thank you all

Hi @Deniz Eker Are you looking to replace the wood siding because it is in poor condition or simply are interested in switching from wood to vinyl strictly to increase potential value? There are quite a few differences between wood and vinyl when comparing their installation, maintenance, cost, temperature durability, etc. Which one is best will likely be dependent on where you are located. Here is an article comparing the two that should help layout all of the pros/cons of each.
