QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS
OF DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VII
DEAR LIMITED PARTNERS:
We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited financial statements
for the period ended March 31, 1996. The following is Management's
discussion and analysis of the Partnership's financial condition and
results of its operations.
For the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, total revenues
increased 6.2% from $438,395 to $465,356 and total expenses increased 3.2%
from $350,229 to $361,559. As a result, net income increased 17.7% from
$88,166 for the three month period ended March 31, 1995, to $103,797
for the same period in 1996. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six
mini-storage facilities averaged 80.7% for the three month periods ended
March 31, 1996, and 1995. Rental revenue increased as a result of higher
unit rental rates. The Partnership is continuing its marketing effort to
attract and keep new tenants in its various mini-storage facilities.
Operating expenses increased approximately $5,300 (1.8%) primarily as a
result of higher repair and maintenance expenses, partially offset by
lower yellow pages advertising costs. General and administrative expenses
increased approximately $6,000 (10.6%) primarily as a result of computer
upgrade and consulting expenses.
The General Partners will continue their policy of funding the continuing
improvement and maintenance of Partnership properties with cash generated
from operations. The Partnership's financial resources appear to be adequate
to meet its needs. The General Partners anticipate distributions to the
Limited Partners to remain at the current level for the foreseeable future.
We are not enclosing a copy of the Partnership Form 10-Q as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission since all the information set forth
therein is contained either in this letter or in the attached financial
statements. However, if you wish to receive a copy of said report, please
send a written request to DSI Realty Income Fund VII, P.O. Box 357,
Long Beach, California 90801.
Very truly yours,
DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VII
