Features & Capabilities

Find and buy affordable vacant homes in Japan — from as little as $500.

Japan has over 9 million abandoned properties (akiya) sitting empty across the country. CheapAkiya brings them all into one place, translated into English, enriched with everything you need to make a real decision.

BROWSE THOUSANDS OF LISTINGS Scroll through real akiya from municipal banks, prefectural portals, and Japan's top property sites. Filter by region, price, condition, and subsidy availability. Every listing is translated and enriched — no Japanese required.

EXPLORE THE MAP See all listings across Japan on an interactive map. Zoom into any city to see individual properties. Tap a cluster to browse homes in that area.

SAVE YOUR FAVOURITES Heart any listing to save it. Your saved homes stay on your device.

GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIES Hundreds of listings qualify for Japanese government relocation subsidies — sometimes up to ¥3,000,000. CheapAkiya surfaces these automatically so you never miss a deal.

FREE & PREMIUM

  • Free: Browse all listings, save homes, view photos and location
  • Premium ($12.99/mo): Unlock full listing details, station distance, disaster risk scores, fiber internet data, subsidy details, and direct seller contact info

Whether you're dreaming of retiring to rural Japan, looking for a remote work base, or just want a cheap piece of real estate — CheapAkiya is where you start.

User Reviews

Has info on subsidies for all regions, distance to train station, even fiber connectivity. Walked me through the buying process and all the fees I would have to pay in Japan. It was way less than I thought. I ended up buying a place in Hokkaido because of this app. Thanks!
