Yes. Japan places no citizenship, visa, or residency restriction on buying land or buildings, so a non-resident purchaser in Nagano / Niigata receives the same freehold title, registered with the Legal Affairs Bureau, as a Japanese citizen. Madarao / Tangram sits in Iiyama City, and the municipality publishes the local zoning, building and vacant-house information that governs what you can do with a property once you own it.
Madarao / Tangram averages 10–13m / season. Premier tree-run terrain, progressive off-piste policy, family friendly. Season length and snow depth vary year to year — the Japan Meteorological Agency publishes the official station records for Nagano / Niigata if you want to check a specific winter before committing to an area.
Yes. Under Japan's Private Lodging Business Act (minpaku / 住宅宿泊事業法) a residential property can be let short-term for up to 180 nights a year after registering locally. Operating year-round without that cap requires a hotel/inn licence under the Ryokan Business Act, which depends on the zoning of the specific plot — check with Iiyama City before you budget on rental income.
