Anywhere between $15K- $35K, depending on site conditions, framing conditions and how old the sheathing and what type of sheathing was used.
Not answering your specific question...but just a suggestion. Go ahead and replace the soffit, fascia, and edge boards with HardiPlank while you are at it. A little more expensive but worth it in the long run.
Are all the joints caulked?The siding on the house I'm in now is Hardie board and I'm not a fan. The stuff expands and shrinks too much. I've bought several types of expensive caulks that are supposed to expand but they crack too sooner or later. I think if I had a choice I'd go with some thick, good quality vinyl.....but I've never had vinyl either.
Hardie doesn't recommend caulking the field joints only the edge joints.
If you don't caulk the field joint water will get in.
They recommend a flashing behind the joint overlapping onto the lower pc. of siding. Caulk for the outside edges.

It will run you in the. Neighborhood of $250 per square(10'x10'). Rotted framing or sheathing will cost more and there's no way to estimate that until you pull the siding off. If your soffits aren't rotted I wouldn't spend the money if your selling. Just repaint
