This worked for me;

I commented(removed) <TargetFramework> property in one of the .cproj's files.

The error comes from the auto-generated file .NETCoreApp,Version=v3.1.AssemblyAttributes.cs, I think it has something to with your custom AssemblyInfo.cs file.

For .net core(new SDK fprmat) project, it doesn't contain the AssemblyInfo.cs file by default like .net framework (old legacy format). Instead we can set those values in its project file, and it will generate the xx.AssemblyAttributes.cs and ProjectName.AssemblyInfo.cs for us. I assume there's conflict between your custom AssemblyInfo.cs and the auto-generated files.

So you need to set <GenerateAssemblyInfo>false</GenerateAssemblyInfo> to use your custom AssemblyInfo.cs file. Check the similar ticket in Github/Dotnet-SDK.
