Do I Care Where My First Apartment Building Is?

Hey BP! Luke the short-term rental guy here. 

2021 I will be the proud owner of my first apartment building. My questions right now... 

1. Do I care where it is? Almost all of the real estate I own is not in the state I live in. Do I need to visit the property more than once per year? Can't I just look for something within say 6 hours of where I live?

2. I'm guessing this boils down to good management... any tips on how to find and or manage mangement? 

Thanks!
