Anytime prefer repaying loan. Although it might be a old school thought. The reason is, I believe, a liability is a liability and an asset is an asset. In other words you can skip your investments in case of a bad time but in a bad time you cannot skip your liabilities. Hence you will feel more free if the loan is repaid.
A personal thought. Final decision is always yours

just to give more context, cagr is 18% with most in equity. Although looks fine to continue like this, looking for different perspective on finishing loan quickly.

Got news that my house closing may have to be moved due to a delay in the sale of my home. My partner’s income was excluded in the DI ratio, but if it were included we’d be well under the % threshold and can be approved to close on time regardless of the sale of my house. However our mortgage company’s underwriting team has been painfully slow in confirming if her income qualifies. She’s been at her new job 1 month after a year off. Anyone with underwriting experience have insight?

I feel like I've been living under a rock for ~5 yrs. I was happy and blowing off money with the thinking that I'll start saving once I start earning more.

Just realised that could've started early. I'm in mid 20s and thinking about investment. Tried watching YouTube videos. But I have pretty basic questions :
1. Where do I even start?
2. What %age of income should I invest?

I hope I'm not late.

Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
