It's a directory of municipality-specific sites and pages with lots of links to cheap akiyas, subsidy programs, and Google translations of pages for English readers. Many municipalities/prefectures have akiya matching programs where you send them what you want and they help find a house within your budget.
Getting one is really easy since there are millions of empty homes but the logistics of maintaining these houses is a whole other matter. Be prepared to do most of the work yourself because a lot of these akiyas are rarely in areas with plenty of craftsmen and construction workers.
