        ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

     On  November  3,  1997  Globe  Business  Resources,  Inc.  ("Globe"  or the
"Company") acquired privately owned Oxford Furnished Apartments,  Inc.("Oxford")
pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of November 1, 1997 among Globe,
Mary Beth Gadus and Michael J. Gadus.

     The purchase  price for the  business  consists of  $6,000,000  in cash and
91,000 shares of Globe common  stock.  An  additional  cash payment,  payable by
March 1, 1998, may be earned  contingent upon certain levels of operating income
for the twelve months ended December 31, 1997. At closing, Globe paid $6,000,000
in cash and delivered  63,700  shares of common  stock.  27,300 shares of common
stock  were  placed in  escrow to be  distributed  November  1, 1998 if  certain
representations and warranties are met.

     The funds  required  for the cash  component  of the  purchase  price  were
derived from  borrowings  under the Company's  Credit  Agreement  with The Fifth
Third Bank and PNC Bank.

     Oxford, with operations in Illinois,  Indiana,  Michigan and Ohio, provides
short-term housing to transferring or temporarily  assigned corporate personnel,
new hires, trainees and consultants.  Oxford maintains an inventory in excess of
1,000 housing units and had revenues of approximately $13.0 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996.
