PART I
Item l. BUSINESS
Registrant, DSI Realty Income Fund VI (the "Partnership") is a
publicly-held limited partnership organized under the California Uniform Limited
Partnership Act pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership
(hereinafter referred to as "Agreement") dated August 1, 1983. The General
Partners are DSI Properties, Inc., a California corporation, Diversified
Investors Agency, a general partnership, whose current partners are Robert J.
Conway and Joseph W. Conway, brothers. The General Partners are affiliates of
Diversified Securities, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of DSI Financial, Inc.
The General Partners provide similar services to other partnerships. Through its
public offering of Limited Partnership Units, Registrant sold twenty-three
thousand seven hundred fifty-three (23,753) units of limited partnership
interests aggregating Eleven Million Eight Hundred Seventy-Six Thousand Five
Hundred Dollars ($11,876,500). The General Partners have retained a one percent
(l%) interest in all profits, losses and distributions (subject to certain
conditions) without making any capital contribution to the Partnership. The
General Partners are not required to make any capital contributions to the
Partnership in the future. Registrant is engaged in the business of investing in
and operating mini-storage facilities with the primary objectives of generating,
for its partners, cash flow, capital appreciation of its properties, and
obtaining federal income tax deductions so that during the early years of
operations, all or a portion of such distributable cash may not represent
taxable income to its partners. Funds obtained by Registrant during the public
offering period of its units were used to acquire seven mini-storage facilities.
Registrant does not intend to sell additional limited partnership units. The
term of the Partnership is fifty years but it is anticipated that Registrant
will sell and/or refinance its properties prior to the termination of the
Partnership. The Partnership is intended to be self-liquidating and it is not
intended that proceeds from the sale or refinancing of its operating properties
will be reinvested. Registrant has no full time employees but shares one or more
employees with other publicly-held limited partnerships sponsored by the General
Partners. The General Partners are vested with authority as to the general
management and supervision of the business and affairs of Registrant. Limited
Partners have no right to participate in the management or conduct of such
business and affairs. An independent management company has been retained to
provide day-to-day management services with respect to all of the Partnership's
investment properties.
The average occupancy levels for each of the Partnership's seven properties
for the years ended December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were as follows:
Location of Property Average Occupancy Average Occupancy
Level for the Year Level for the Year
Ended Dec. 31, 1997 Ended Dec. 31, 1996
Vallejo, California 88% 85%
Santa Rosa, California
(both properties) 90% 85%
Arvada, Colorado 82% 80%
Las Vegas, Nevada 77% 84%
Federal Heights, Colorado 87% 87%
Colorado Springs, Colorado 86% 86%
Please refer to the discussion appearing elsewhere herein under the caption
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations for a detailed analysis of the results of operations of the
Partnership's properties.
The business in which the Partnership is engaged is highly competitive.
Each of its mini-storage facilities is located in or near a major urban area,
and accordingly, competes with a significant number of individuals and
organizations with respect to both the purchase and sale of its properties and
for rentals. Generally, Registrant's business is not affected by the change in
seasons.
<PAGE>
Item 2. PROPERTIES
Registrant owns a fee interest in seven mini-storage facilities, none of
which are subject to long-term indebtedness. Please refer to the discussion

RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Registrant, a publicly-held limited partnership, sold 23,753 limited
partnership units during its offering and as of December 31, 1997 had 837
limited partners of record. There is no intention to sell additional limited
partnership units nor is there a market for these units.
Average cash distributions of $15.20 per Limited Partnership Unit were
declared and paid each quarter for the year ended December 31, 1997 and
$15.00 per Limited Partnership Unit for the year ended December 31, 1996. It

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1997 COMPARED TO 1996
Total revenues increased from $2,522,074 in 1996 to $2,564,305 in 1997,
while total expenses increased from $1,476,606 to $1,530,106 resulting in a
decrease in net income from $1,045,468 to $1,034,203. Rental revenues
increased as a result of higher unit rental rates as average occupancy
remained at 85% for the Partnership's seven mini-storage facilities in 1997 as
compared to 1996. The increase in operating expenses of approximately
$58,300 (9.6%) was due primarily to increases in repairs and maintenance,
real estate tax expense and salaries and wages partially offset by a
decrease in yellow pages advertising costs. General and administrative
expenses increased approximately $8,500 (6.0%) primarily as a result of an
increase in office expenses. The General Partners' incentive management
fee remained constant. Property management fees, which are based on revenues,
increased slightly as a result of the increase in rental revenue.
1996 COMPARED TO 1995
Total revenues increased from $2,513,723 in 1995 to $2,522,074 in 1996,
while total expenses increased from $1,406,458 to $1,476,606 resulting in a
decrease in net income from $1,107,265 to $1,045,468. Rental revenues remained
relatively constant as average occupancy remained at 85% for the Partnership's
seven mini-storage facilities in 1996 as compared to 1995. The increase in
operating expenses of approximately $58,900 (10.8%) was due primarily to
increases in yellow pages advertising costs, real estate tax expense
and salaries and wages. General and administrative expenses increased
approximately $13,400 (10.3%) primarily as a result of higher legal and
professional fees. The General Partners' incentive management fee decreased
slightly as a result of the decrease in cash available for distribution on
which this fee is based. Property management fees remained relatively constant.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by approximately
$48,800 (3.3%) in 1997 compared to 1996 primarily due to the decrease in
net income, depreciation and customers deposits and other liabilities
partially offset by an increase in incentive management fee payable. Net cash
provided by operating activities decreased by approximately $29,000 (1.9%)
in 1996 compared to 1995 primarily due to the decrease in net income partially
offset by an increase in customer deposits and other liabilities.
Cash used in financing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash
flows, has consisted solely of cash distributions to partners. Special
distributions of 3%, 3%, and 2.5% were declared and paid on December 15, 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively. These actions were the result of the Partnership's
increased cash flow from the operations of tis properties.
Cash used in investing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash
flows, has consisted solely of acquisitions of equipment for the Partnership's
mini storage properties. The Partnership has no material commitments for capital
expenditures.
The General Partners plan to continue their policy of funding the
continuing improvement and maintenance of Partnership properties with cash
generated from operations. The Partnership's resources appear to be adequate to
meet its needs for the next twelve months.
The General Partners are not aware of any environmental problems which
could have a material adverse effect upon the financial position of the
Partnership.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners of
DSI Realty Income Fund VI:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DSI Realty Income Fund VI, a
California Real Estate Limited Partnership(the "Partnership") as of December 31,
1997 and 1996, and the related statements of income, changes in partners'
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of DSI Realty Income Fund VI at December 31,
1997 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VI
(A California Real Estate Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
1. GENERAL
DSI Realty Income Fund VI, a California Real Estate Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership"), has two general partners (DSI Properties, Inc. and
Diversified Investors Agency) and limited partners owning 23,753 limited
partnership units, which were purchased for $500 a unit. The general
partners have made no capital contribution to the Partnership and are not
required to make any capital contribution in the future. The Partnership
has a maximum life of 50 years and was formed on March 27, 1981 under the
California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose of
acquiring and operating real estate.
The Partnership owns seven mini-storage facilities located in Vallejo,
California; Arvada, Federal Heights and Colorado Springs, Colorado; Las
Vegas, Nevada and two in Santa Rosa, California. All facilities were
purchased from Dahn Corporation ("Dahn"). Dahn is not affiliated with the
Partnership. Dahn is affiliated with other partnerships in which DSI
Properties, Inc. is a general partner. The mini-storage facilities are
operated for the Partnership by Dahn under various agreements that are
subject to renewal annually. Under the terms of the agreements, the
Partnership is required to pay Dahn a property management fee equal to 6%
of gross revenue from operations, as defined.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Partnership classifies its short-term
investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less as
cash equivalents.
Property and Depreciation - Property is recorded at cost and is primarily
composed of mini-storage facilities. Depreciation is provided for using
the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 20 years for the
facilities. Building improvements are depreciated over a five year period.
Income Taxes - No provision has been made for income taxes in the
accompanying financial statements. The taxable income or loss of the
Partnership is allocated to each partner in accordance with the terms of
the Agreement of Limited Partnership. Each partner's tax status, in turn,
determines the appropriate income tax for its allocated share of the
Partnership's taxable income or loss. The net difference between the bases
of the Partnership's assets and liabilities for federal income tax purposes
and as reported for financial statement purposes is $1,601,506.
Revenues - Rental revenue is recognized using the accrual method based
on contractual amounts provided for in the lease agreements, which
approximates recognition on a straight-line basis. The term of the lease
agreements is usually less than one year.
Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit - Net income per limited
partnership unit is computed by dividing net income allocated to the
limited partners by the weighted average number of limited partnership
units outstanding during each year (23,753 in 1997, and 1996, 1995).
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires the Partnership to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Partnership regularly reviews long-
lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
If the sum of the expected future cash flow is less than the carrying
amount of the asset, the Partnership recognizes an impairment. No
impairment losses were required in 1997, 1996 or 1995.
Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially
subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily
of cash equivalents and rent receivables. The Partnership places its cash
equivalents with high credit quality institutions.
3. PROPERTY
At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the total cost of property and accumulated
depreciation are as follows:
1997 1996
Land $ 1,759,000 $ 1,759,000
Buildings and improvements 8,414,452 8,399,698
----------- -----------
Total 10,173,452 10,158,698
Less accumulated depreciation (6,272,539) (5,853,319)
----------- ----------
Property, net $ 3,900,913 $ 4,305,379
=========== ===========
4. ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES
Under the Agreement of Limited Partnership, the general partners are to be
allocated 1% of the net profits or losses from operations and the limited
partners are to be allocated the balance of the net profits or losses from
operations in proportion to their limited partnership interests. The
general partners are also entitled to receive a percentage, based on a
predetermined formula, of any cash distribution from the sale, other
disposition, or refinancing of the project.
In addition, general partners are entitled to receive an incentive
management fee for supervising the operations of the Partnership. The
fee is to be paid in an amount equal to 9% per annum of the cash available
for distribution on a cumulative basis.
