Go to a hardware store ask for a product called TSP which is tri sodium phospate its great for mold mildew washing off siding also. If you cant afford that a simple home bleach mixed with a little water and a wire brush will fix your problem

Don't waste money on a pressure washer.
Get a garden sprayer (2 gallon).
Fill it with:
2 cups bleach
2 tablespoons dish soap
1 1/2 gallons of water.
Mix.
Spray it over the house. You can do one side of the house at a time.
Get a hose sprayer, with a jet setting. Spray it on the areas.
You may need to repeat this 2 or 3 times on areas that are REALLY dirty.
It took my dad and I to do my two story 3 bedroom house in about 3.5 hours.
If you want to rent a pressure washer it will cost you $60-$80.
Hiring someone to clean your house for you will cost about $125.
So figure out how much your time is worth.

A detergent with bleach is the best. To prevent the green stuff from coming back for a few years (providing it doesn't get constantly rained on) coat with diluted liquid car wax.

If you have not used a powerwasher before, I suggest hiring someone to do it for you, as you can dammage your house with one. It can take the paint off down to bare wood or worse.

At HOME DEPOT or LOWES or a similar store they have mildew wash for power washers. They work great and you can rent a power washer for not much. GOOD LUCK.
