Seems that SEO is best option, till they make perfect trimming, overhangs, roof offset, composites, etc. I mean, they should make more procedural options for as, so we are flexible to make accurate and in easy steps BIM model.

Yes. That is a common problem for me too. To be brief, I manage that with Solid Element Operations.
Using the roof sheathing and/or ceilings as operators to strip off the siding where it is not wanted. You may need to change some skins for the sake of having what is not removed so up correctly when the siding is removed per the SEO. In that particular case, I would model the gable end walls separate from the walls supporting them. Not necessary but might be helpful ?

Never an easy one these types of connections. From what you describe you probably need two wall types for above and below roof. I assume you are familiar with placing SEO operators on a separate layer with a unique intersection number to avoid the layer contents impacting the rest of the model. With this in place I have taken to using a Shell profile with zero thickness to split the walls to the required roof profile.
Just a suggestion and I'm sure only one of many alternatives available in AC.
