Landlord won't return deposit

Options
I will keep this brief as this for me has gone on far to long almost 7 years
A landlord who won't give me my deposit back (he didn't put into a deposit scheme)
I first applied for its return by way of a money claim in 2014 he ignored this, so I was granted a Judgment for claimant. Myself having suffered ill health, I tried to no avail for its return, I later found out he had entered into bankruptcy, so I was unable to pursue him through the courts until he came out of that in 2019 It's now in 2021 been to court and I won the case, I have placed a charging order against his property this has also been granted by the courts, I would just like to know if I can proceed with an attachment to earnings as he is a wealthy person receiving rent from over 15 hmo tenants, and other 3 properties, and lives a 1/4 million pound property mortgage free any help please here would be greatly appreciated

    You'd be better off posting on the house renting board.

    Depending on where you are that could be a 1 bed flat, a 3 bed semi or something larger
