A couple who bought a dream home in Tenerife say the previous owner is refusing to move out - and has even threatened to squat at the property for another decade.
José Miguel and Rosario are already three years into a bitter legal battle over the house in La Laguna, and have even taken the case to the Supreme Court after the ex-resident remained inside.
At first the house seemed to tick all their boxes, having a good location, a reasonable price and an owner who appeared happy to sell.
