Missouri- I have a judgement against an operating house flipping business for $4k which they have refused to pay. My garnishment of their bank account came back almost null. I cannot put a lien on their houses currently listed for sale because small claims do not allow liens. I also cannot find an order to force them to court for additional asset discovery. They have a house on AirBnB which is making money. Is there a way I can force them to pay me from these earnings? My only other idea is that a member of the family that owns this business works as a Realtor also. Can I garnish his employer or since the judgement is against a business is that not allowed? It seems I am out of options.

You cannot garnish the wages of anyone but the judgment debtor.

You might think about turning the judgment over to a professional (i.e., judgment collection service) to collect.

Here is a link to a Missouri Bar article on how to collect on a judgment:
