The siding looks to be in great shape, but how much will this end up costing me down the road? I have read that the siding is actually much less dangerous than other forms. Please give me an idea of what I am getting myself into. Thanks.
P.S. I live in Hunterdon County New Jersey USA

The siding, if it is in good condition, is not harmful at all. If it breaks, the dust created is the harmful part. If you ever re side the home, removing the asbestos is very costly. You can go over it with vinyl siding.
