Rehabs out of immediate area

What’s the furthest distance you would take on a self-managed fix/flip project? I'm considering some projects outside of my immediate area (2-3 hours away) because of familiarity with the market and connections that I have. I am just starting out and don't have solid boots on the ground yet. Advice is mixed as to whether it's possible to pull off or not. I'm talking to agents and contractors (who are of course on board) but I work full-time so that adds another wrinkle. Thoughts?

I will go no more than 3 hours / 150 miles from my location in DC.
