A tenant who proposed to pay €245,000 for a house he has been renting since 2011 had his offer rejected by a receiver trying to get enforcement of an eviction notice, a court has heard.

Timothy Hadley and his family were living in a house in Castlehaven, Co Cork, when it was taken over by Grant Thornton after the owners fell into debt.
