Hi,I purchased my first rental property in cash in January this year (In Texas), which I then placed in a LLC.  

I'm in Columbia, MD, and seeking to roll my two (well, as of the end of this month) investment properties into an LLC.

I am a real estate newbie , I am currently in the process of getting my LLC & I wanted to know what are some steps I should take on getting my first fix and flip.

If you have cash it's not hard to get a lender....but expect to show bank statements proving funds and you will be putting 30% down and paying 5-12% also some of these guys will require you to setup an LLC and have specific insurance.

You might want to read our series about “How to Screen a PMC Better than a Tenant”, since selecting the wrong PMC is usually more harmful than selecting a bad tenant: https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/3094/91877-how-to-screen-a-pmc-better-than-a-tenant-part-1-services-and-processes

The trustee would be me.If I place an LP fund which holds an LLC real estate syndication into the trust, and the LLC fund produces income in the form of distributions and capital appreciation/gains, could the 'trust instrument' be used to direct all incoming proceeds to be invested into a bank which then places funds into a 529 plan?

For example, the LLC transfer fee for Florida.

Two are in my name and two are owned through an LLC. 

If you have made an offer and provided earnest money in your name, transferring that to your IRA could be viewed as a self-dealing transaction that could void the entire IRA.All offers need to be made in the name of the IRA (or IRA owned LLC if going the checkbook route).  

Also, if you try to buy under an LLC they will most likely still require you to personally guarantee the loan.
