How often should I repaint the outside of my home?

It varies, but because of the climate in which we live, you can expect to repaint your house every 7 – 10 years. It is better to plan and budget for painting as part of normal maintenance on your home rather than trying to “get away” without doing it for as long as you can. Waiting too long will increase the cost of repair significantly as water damage can go well beyond the scope of what painting can solve.
