Theoretically should put more into investment/FD instead of clearing housing loan first.

But ayam prudent type, cleared housing loan first. Ayam probably not the type to get rich, but can sleep soundly.

have some cash with you rather than all in housing loan.

its always good to have some emergency funds anytime in your life.

Why not both? Have less housing loan principal while still having emergency cash?

How? Full flexi or semi flexi housing loan.

Ayam used to have full flexi housing loan, the money left in current account practically offset the full housing loan (zero loan interest every month), if need emergency cash, can still withdraw from the current account at will.

eg you having housing loan 500k, you park your money at semi/fully fexi loan.

if you wanna apply another 500k housing loan, it will be hard, unless your income very high.

You mean you prefer to clear housing loan A first before applying for housing loan B is it?
Of course you can, my statement was about having only one housing loan.
