where to investment 1031 money

[John Fong]

I'm selling my investment property and want to do a 1031. I'm thinking about where to invest that money into, and was wondering if the following is possible? Anything to pay attention to in each of the following scenario?

1. use the 1031 money to buy 2 investment properties with a combined values >= the sales price

2. use the 1031 money to improve one of my existing investment properties (e.g. building an ADU / remodeling)

Thanks
