Brick to Siding Transition
I'm adding a second story to my brick-front ranch house. But, I want to use siding vice brick on the second story in the front. This leaves an offset equal to the depth of the brick. What is the best way to make the transition flush?

I'm not a contractor or a professional builder, but I would consider using 2X8s for the wall studs above the brick facade to get the wall out flush with the bricks.
Use caulked Z flashing up the unfinished upper wall under the siding and over the bricks.
Good Luck!
