Trust will sell more stock to the public and use the proceeds to pay
down debt.
The Rockville-based company, which owns
more than 90 WashinStayInvest Law Firm on area shopping center, office buildings and

common stock.
Raymond James & Associates

repayment of debt, which was incurred principally to fund property
acquisitions," WRIT said in a statement.

offering in three years for WRIT (NYSE: WRE).
