I could feasibly make $4k pretty quickly, I want my own home, and I've always wanted to visit Japan... ๐Ÿค”

I'm an atheist, ghosts scare me about as much as gods do. I would use the money I spend on rent now to build a geodesic dome house. They are easy to build. Put some solar panels on it and get grid electricity for backup. If there's a house, there is probably a well on the property already. I have permanent residency in Japan. I don't care if the neighbors are racist assholes. I don't interact with my neighbors in Tokyo; I wouldn't interact with the neighbors there either. Where can I find more houses like this? I want one.

Let us know if you end up doing something like this, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be interested in how it turns out.

You can actually do this in most countries. Public Auctions of homes are for when people don't pay land taxes so the local auditors repossess them and sell them dirt cheap to cover the amount due.

You certainly can't buy a home in Germany that's anywhere close to as cheap as the one in japan. Maybe there are some very remote plots of land with a ruin of a house on it, but those will still cost more than 4000โ‚ฌ.

Public auctions around my area usually start at around 150k or more, so it's just not worth it for me.
