Trying to find our first deal.

[Maxwell Murphy]

I am trying to find my first deal. But I am really having a hard time. I live in Portland Oregon and I cant make any of the numbers work out. 

I recently found a quadplex in a small college town in Washington for $500,000. But my problem is that I only have $20,000 for a down payment so the cash flow would be zero (with a house hack). 

I feel stuck. I could use some advice or thoughts, even if the advice is to move onto a new deal. 

Thanks.
