First, before you repair, you might want to have a home inspector take a look at the cracks see if these are cosmetic or structural. If structural, contact home warranty, there is a 10 year structural warranty. If cosmetic, Sherwin Williams has the appropriate sealant for this application. I have found that using the caulk gun to force as much sealant into the crack, and then use your finger to smooth out the caulk to the surrounding texture. Allow to dry, and follow yup with the matching paint, note primer may be required, ask the paint store. Hope this helps
