Best Siding Option

I’ve got a couple of homes that need new siding. Do any of you have advise on which type of siding works out best and what a good ballpark figure to work with for a typical 15 X 70 home?

I only use vinyl. Inexpensive, easy to install, fast and modern. Material cost around $1500.

Vinyl works great and so does that cement hardy board. Each market price is different and it depends on if you are installing it yourself or having someone else do it. In my state, you also have to permit siding replacements when you fully reside, through labor and industries. Some cities and counties also require permits to exterior structure as well.
