I'd look for fixer-uppers that people don't want or can't put on the MLS.If you are aiming to blue collar working class, there is plenty of that too.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued new guidance on April 4th, 2016 that is going to require all single-family and multifamily rental professionals to revisit their policies.In a decision that is aimed at protecting the rights of “returning citizens”, HUD is limiting the use of arrest records in tenant screening nationwide for both public and private housing.

There is also a "demand to close" that is the same as a notice to perform except specifically aimed at closing escrow.  

I am also looking to invest out there (buying a property for my parents) and building a prefab ADU on the lot in order to rent out for supplemental income.

You are exactly right that it's better for the rent to be paid or supplemented by Medicaid, because these folks may be able to work but don't have much earning power and cannot pay market rates.

To that effect, I would like to suggest starting of a Hospitality/Hotel forum or meetup group.The aim of the group would be to network with hospitality industry professionals, discuss industry trends, and maybe have guest speakers from the Hospitality Industry. 

Brad Greiwe and Brendan Wallace, founders of the real estate tech venture capital firm Fifth Wall Ventures, aim to change this.

I'm aiming to obtain my first property within the next 6-9 months. 

It would have been great to meet with you @Charles A., im on my way to Arkansas now. so unfortunately we missed each other. 

I took a look at Fannie Mae's Conventional 97, but they have a "one unit principle" which goes against what I am aiming for.
