Jeffers, president of J. Jeffers & Co., could not immediately be reached for comment.

In December, Stritch purchased the property, which consists of two buildings, a three-story 27,754-square-foot office building and a three-story 14,093-square-foot building, for $2.1 million.

Stritch had been in a multi-year lease agreement and exercised the right of first refusal of a purchase offer and won court approval to buy the buildings from BC Pabst.
