Beginner investor in salt lake county, wondering about financing

Hey, Im new too the forms! 

Iv been listing to the podcasts and reading about investing for awhile, my goal is to create 6000$ in passive in come by the time in 24 years old. Iv been running the numbers, and figuring out the amounts of money i will have around the times of the year. I figured i could get my first property withen the next 2 months with a 3.5% down payment, co signing with my parents. (Iv been working construction for my dad, not realizing that without taxes being pulled out, that i have no job history) then my second deal ill be able to round up hopefully 40-60k by the end of next summer in savings, giving me 20 down for maybe a duplex or fourplex, then from that point on, getting 2 deals a year with 40-80k down. I realized that by the time i turn 24, ill be at around 4000 a month in passive income... (assuming 200 in cash flow per unit i buy) so iv just thought "ehhh spend the first 2-3 years going with my plan. Then when i have credability, partner to get more deals to reach my 6k a month goal. BUT! I just realized something while reading "Financial words you should know" I read about a 80-10-10 lown. This completely could change the speed that i will build my investment portfolio! I could be bying twice as many propertys, or twice the size, using 5-10% down, rather then 20% down! I was wondering if anyone knew how commen 80-10-10s where and how often you can use them? Every lown? Or only if your super lucky. I also had questions about my first investment, should i waste my 3.5% lown on a 200-300k lown. Or would that be a waste? And i should shoot high because the lack of upfront money needed?  Thanks guys
