Do I have to paint this exterior???

Should I paint this exterior? I need a quick sale and am debating whether to paint this or not. I think if I paint it I will get a quicker sale (probably within the first 2 weeks) but I am already $1500 over budget on this project and if I paint the siding I will be $3500 over budget. However I am not sure if this will greatly affect my resale.

There is a house up the street under contract that has the same exact color however about 200 sq ft bigger as is priced about $7000 more than my house will be priced at. It sat for 3 weeks.

So what do you think? Paint or no?

I would think some landscaping would do better than paint
