Most people nowadays would say - if you don't intend to return to Ireland (at least to live)and paying off these loans is seemingly impossible or will take for ever, then why are you worrying?
As regards the tenant -come on ,be realistic. There's loads of properties around. He hasn't a whopping great debt round his neck, or debtors chasing him. So, O.K., it would be inconvenient for him to move . Boo-hoo.
I won't moralize about paying one's debts. You're away from Ireland and intend to stay away. You either start a new life, or remain in penury for decades paying the bank the loan.
