I found that a lot of self managing investors appreciate it a ton if they don’t have to do those things.

While sophistication of your equity partners (private money lenders) will vary between residential and commercial, the principle of raising private capital is the same.You need to develop your own system which allows a constant stream of PML even when you don't need the funds and/or don't have an active deal under contract.For example; I raise private capital by offering free educational workshops for people with self-directed IRAs.

The only way around this is to be doing land lording WRONG, a self-inflicted injury.
