17 December 2010 deduction of interest is allowed for both the house subject to maximum limit.

Yes deduction is allowed if the property is situated outside india, in case of resident assessee.

26 December 2010 The assessee can also get deduction towards Repayment of Principal u/s 80C in respect to both the properties.

Further, the assessee can claim only one house as self occupied subject to certain conditions of employment etc. So it will be obligatory for him to show either rental income from any (or both) of the properties or the properties may be deemed as let out property.
