How would you be able to collect on a house if he is not the owner? I would suggest you hire a private investigator to see if this person can be located and garnished. There is also a procedure for a debtor examination. It is rarely used but maybe you can find some use in the procedure. Iowa code chapter 630 governs the procedure.
