I want to make a house that's purchasable but I am completely clueless on how to.
I was wonder if someone was available to possibly help me do this with a popup prompt to ask if they want to buy the house.

Do you want the player to touch a part, and the GUI appear, or is it a GUI that, if pressed, pops up to ask?

I just need it to pop up asking if they want to buy the house.
And with a yes or no. If yes, removes the required curreny, if no, closes the GUI.
If player doesn't have enough, send a message.

But I am completely clueless on how to even make the whole house purchasable.

Also, how do I make the leaderboard currency save for players? So when they join back it's the same?

Yes but I find learning from other people is easier.
The tutorials to me teach you nothing but silliness. They teach you simple stuff like a message popping up.

It never teaches you what you really want to do.

Idk, it just doesn't seem right to me.
I've always tried reading tutorials, even for days but none help me.
I just gain knowledge from other people.

Look at "Peasfactory's" videos, I learned scripting from watching it. And Yes, they are helpful.

But in the mean time, do you think you can help me out?

GUIs are quite advanced for a beginner. i would at least consider learning the basics of scripting, this guide will help you quite a bit:

however, you can jump straight into guis with this guide (not recommended if you are a beginner):

and also this is what i would do to make a "purchasable" house:

put a string value inside of the house model

if for example, the player tries to touch the door to the house, and they don't own it, prompt a GUI to their screen.

if they say yes, deduct the currency from their leaderstats, and then close the GUI
and then put their name inside of the string value, and only let the owner enter the house

if they say no, just simply close the GUI

Again I do not want to learn from tutorials.
I want to learn from others if possible by just simply telling me straight out how to do it. Therefore, for next time I'll know.

"Again I do not want to learn from tutorials."

well, just saying, no one here is going to flat out make the script for you

we will debug it though/fix errors

and we can give advice on how to do what you want, and point you in the right direction

Things in life don't just get handed to you, they'll come in brick-by-brick, and it's up to you to put it together. And that's why a tutorial is for.
