I cannot guarantee this mod to work with saved games that have progressed (quests being finished, interacted with NPCs, etc) It is best to always play this mod or any mod with a new save.
I love this mod but the other day I got fed up with the eternal open quest entry. It was too late to change the "got the house" 20 journal entry so I just made a new fluff entry with a finished state. If I activate that journal entry (which has no scripting at all) it DISAPPEARS THE HOUSE'S DOORS! LOLWHAT. Just an annoyance, other than that great mod. Making new IDs for every element is one of those learning moments I guess, I think I've done worse than that.
SOLVED: I just disabled the custom scripting for the doors through the construction set. Only do this if you're in a similar situation to me (you're in a save that's well past the point where you got the last journal entry for the house).
Keep trying to buy the house in Sadrith Mora but Mallam will simply tell me here's the key without actually giving me the key or taking my money. Not sure what the issue could be
if you don't mind a bit of console work, I was able to remedy this. obviously the proper way would be debugging/fixing the dialogue tree, however once you get to the point where he keeps saying he gives you the key but does not, i found this works:
while in conversation with him, pull up the console, then click on him so he is referenced, top of the console box should read "Console (mallam ryon)" then enter the following lines:
This will also fix the vendor Elegal so he can sell you furniture.
I just dug through the .esp with the construction kit, for the proper intended changes when buying the house, that for some reason, you can never actually get to via normal dialogue tree. I plan on leaving this in my normal play through list of mods. I will probably fix the dialogue issue if i can figure out why you never get there normally. I will also probably, properly fix the journal entries so they don't hang around in your journal after you have completed the quests (basically the quest should be over after your purchase is made). I'm using OpenMW as my normal client/engine to play morrowind, but that shouldn't matter at all and it should work fine on vanilla.
I don't know if you've fixed your problem or not but in order to finish out the quest you'll have to go into CS and change the journal entry "I bought the house" index 20 quest status to "finished" instead of "none"; just look for the modified journal entries. In the base mod only the Vivec house is properly marked as finished.

EDIT: Following the advice of Drekskald I have tried this on a new play through. It appears to work fine. I have not specifically tested 'Ms_MournholdHouse' house purchase quest yet, but everything else seems to be working great. I assume when I make it to Mournhold, it should be working as well.
************* FINAL EDIT: (I Hope) ************* for the Sadrith Mora house: open up in the construction editor find Mallam Ryon's topicinfo for the line where he says:  "Here is the key and welcome to Sadrith Mora. To get some furniture talk to Elegal at his trader." and change line 28 in the script text. The quotes are unbalanced. The line should read:
"bams_stool2"->disable
Fixed and works as expected, you don't need to do any console magic, just fix in Construction Editor.

Thank you to LegoManIAm94 for the mod :-) I also changed all of my container capacities by X's 1000, including the bookcase in the Vivec house.
Thank you for the mod and thank you, to everyone who had helpful input on fixing this properly.
Hey am trying to buy the house in Sadrith Mora and Mallan Ryon says that he gave me the key and bla bla, but i don't get any key and i don't expend my money, i try to give me the key with console commands, but it doesn't works, i can't get in the house, can you give me the journal ID to buy it?
I can't buy any of the storage options for the Vivec House they are blanked out in the Topics list they don't highlight so i can select them in Jeanne's dialogue.
vortex shows this mod is enabled with no conflicts, but none of the houses appear (or come up as dialogue options) in any of my saved games or new games i've started. anyone have any ideas to make this mod work? i've tried uninstall/reinstall already.

Thank you to Drekskald for pointing out journal fixes:

open up in the construction editor
find Mallam Ryon's topicinfo for the line where he says:
 "Here is the key and welcome to Sadrith Mora. To get some furniture talk to Elegal at his trader."
and change line 28 in the script text. The quotes are unbalanced. The line should read:
