Liquidating two properties into an intermediary for another
I have a property in my name I want to mortgage so I can use the money to fix it up and make some improvements. I also have two debt free properties I would like to liquidate into an intermediary and then use that money to 1031 exchange into the property I am going to be mortgaging to reduce my debt.
Is there a way to do this in my own name?

Sorry @Rich Hupper, the 1031 must be used to purchase new investment real estate. Paying down a mortgage on real estate you already own will not qualify.
