Interest on Home Loan - Can be claimed u/s.24 up to date of squaring off the home loan during the financial year.
HRA - can be claimed u/s.10(13A) for the period of rent paid during the year
Principal Component - If the sold property is transferred within 5 years from the end of the financial year when the property purchased, then so far claimed sums u/s.80C w.r.t principal repayment relevant to such prior periods [5 years] will be deemed as income chargeable during the current year and no additional deduction allowed for current year on account of principal repayment.

Interest on Housing Loan and repayment of housing loan can be claimed respectively. If the home is sold before 5 years, then the principal repayment portion will get added to income.
Capital Gains on the sale of property,if any, wil have to be paid.
