Contact the notary/title company/lender on the transfer deeds for copies of the Trust.

I gave them $16K down over several payments then recently borrowed $14K from a private lender to pay off the balance.

I would much rather pay tax on just the interest income rather than on a distribution of that amount, that I've already previously paid income tax on.But, when getting funding for deals, from either hard money lenders or other lenders, will having that loan on the books create a roadblock that could make getting funding more difficult, potentially costing me deals?

If the lender is requiring you to put 30% down on a flip, its likely because the deal itself doesn't look great and they would want you to put more 'skin in the game'. 

If you still have a mortgage, contact the lender to ensure the transfer will not trigger a "due on sale" clause.

Make sure that your lender/loan officer is willing to get on a call with your lawyer to help out with any discussion/details to dial the agreement in as much as possible.

If you need some lender recommendations, feel free to PM me.
