                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policies:

(a) In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying statements for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997, and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring
nature.

(b) For financial statement purposes, in previous years partners were allocated
income and loss in accordance with the provisions in the Partnership Agreement.
In order for the capital accounts of the General Partner and Limited Partners
to appropriately reflect their respective remaining economic interests as
provided for in the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner was not
allocated any income during the first quarter of 1997 for financial statement
purposes.

2. Partnership Termination:

The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all interests in
real estate. During 1996, the Partnership sold six properties and its minority
joint venture interests in four additional properties. During February 1997,
the Partnership sold the Park Central Office Building and Flamingo Pines
Shopping Center and in April 1997 sold the Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office
Building. The Partnership has two remaining properties.  Currently, the
Partnership has entered into the contract for the sale of the Hammond Aire
Plaza Shopping Center. In addition, Partnership is actively marketing for sale
the 420 North Wabash Office Building. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such
contingencies may include legal and other fees stemming from litigation
involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the lawsuit as
discussed in Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements. In the absence of any
contingency, the reserves will be paid within twelve months of the last
property being sold. In the event a contingency exists, reserves may be held by
the Partnership for a longer period of time.

3. Transactions with Affiliates:

Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 are:
                                               
                                       Paid       Payable
                                    ------------  ---------    
   Reimbursement of expenses to  
     the General Partner, at cost    $44,788      $167,225  

The General Partner made a contribution to the Partnership of $230,427 in
connection with the settlement of certain litigation, as further discussed in
Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements.
<PAGE>

4. Property Dispositions:

(a) In February 1997, the Partnership sold the Park Central Office Building in
an all cash sale for $21,471,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the
Partnership paid $470,891 in selling costs. In addition, the Partnership paid a
state withholding tax of $43,900 on behalf of the Limited Partners relating to
the gain on the sale of the property which has been recorded as a deemed
distribution for financial statement purposes. The basis of the property was
$15,302,762. For financial statement purposes, the Partnership recognized a
gain of $5,697,347 in connection with the sale of this property.

(b) In February 1997, the Partnership sold the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center
in an all cash sale for $10,200,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the
Partnership paid $346,400 in selling costs. The basis of the property was
$10,242,409. For financial statement purposes, the Partnership recognized no
gain or loss on the sale of this property. However, the Partnership had
previously established an allowance for potential losses related to this
property against which its remaining net investment of $388,809 was written
off.

5. Settlement of Litigation:

A settlement received final approval by the court in November 1996 in the class
action, Paul Williams and Beverly Kennedy, et. al. v. Balcor Pension Investors,
et. al. upon the terms described in the notice to class members in September
1996. The General Partner made a contribution of $230,427 to the Partnership,
from which the plaintiffs' counsel was paid $23,043 pursuant to the settlement
agreement. In February 1997, the General Partner made a settlement payment of
$207,384 ($0.15 per Interest) to members of the class pursuant to the
settlement. Of the total settlement amount, $124,075 was paid to original
investors who held their Limited Partnership Interests at the date of the
settlement and was recorded as a distribution to Limited Partners in the
Financial Statements. The remaining portion of the settlement of $83,309 was
paid to original investors who previously sold their Interests in the
Partnership. This amount was recorded as an administrative expense in the
Financial Statements. The settlement had no material impact on the Partnership.

6. Contingency:

The Partnership is currently involved in a lawsuit whereby the Partnership, the
General Partner and certain third parties have been named as defendants seeking
damages relating to tender offers to purchase interests in the Partnership and
nine affiliated partnerships initiated by the third party defendants in 1996.
The defendants continue to vigorously contest this action. The action has been
dismissed with prejudice and plaintiffs have filed an appeal. It is not
determinable at this time whether or not an unfavorable decision in this action
would have a material adverse impact on the financial position, operations and
liquidity of the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has meritorious
defenses to contest the claims.
<PAGE>
7. Subsequent Events:

(a) In April 1997, the Partnership paid $43,343,319 ($31.35 per Interest) to
Limited Partners representing the regular quarterly distribution of available
Cash Flow of $2.35 per Interest for the first quarter of 1997 and a special
distribution of Mortgage Reductions of $29.00 per Interest from proceeds
received in connection with the sale of the Park Central Office Building and
the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center in 1997, and from remaining available
proceeds from the 1996 property sales.

(b) The Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office Building was owned by a joint
venture consisting of the Partnership and an affiliate. The Partnership and the
affiliate held participating percentages in the joint venture of 72.5% and
27.5%, respectively. In April 1997, the joint venture sold the property in an
all cash sale for $12,724,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the joint venture
paid $340,293 in selling costs. The basis of the property was $11,074,128. For
financial statement purposes, the Partnership will recognize a gain of
approximately $1,310,000 from the sale of this property during the second
quarter of 1997, of which approximately $360,000 is the minority joint venture
partner's share.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Balcor Pension Investors - VI (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
formed in 1984 to invest in first mortgage loans and, to a lesser extent,
wrap-around loans and junior mortgage loans. The Partnership raised
$345,640,500 through the sale of Limited Partnership Interests and utilized
these proceeds to fund thirty-one loans. As a result of repayments,
foreclosures and write-offs of loans in prior years, the Partnership has no
loans in its portfolio as of March 31, 1997. The Partnership sold the
Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office Building in April 1997. Currently, the
Partnership has entered into a contract for the sale of the Hammond Aire Plaza
Shopping Center and is actively marketing for sale the 420 North Wabash Office
Building. 

Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1996 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

Operations
- ----------

Summary of Operations
- ---------------------

During 1997, the Partnership recognized a gain in connection with the sale of
the Park Central Office Building which was the primary reason for the increase
in net income during the quarter ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the same
period in 1996. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in income from
operations of real estate held for sale due to the 1997 and 1996 sales of the
Partnership's properties, which were generating income from operations prior to
their sales. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized
below. 

1997 Compared to 1996
- ---------------------

Discussions of fluctuations between 1997 and 1996 refer to the quarters ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996.

As a result of the sale of the Noland Fashion Square acquisition loan in August
1996, interest income and equity in loss from investment in acquisition loan
ceased during 1996.

Income from operations of real estate held for sale represents the net
operations of the properties acquired by the Partnership through foreclosure.
As of March 31, 1997, the Partnership was operating three properties. Original
funds advanced by the Partnership totaled approximately $53,600,000 for these
<PAGE>
three properties. The Partnership sold the Park Central Office Building and the
Flamingo Pines Shopping Center in February 1997. In addition, six properties
were sold in 1996. The 1997 and 1996 sales of the Partnership's properties,
which were generating income from operations prior to their sales, resulted in
a decrease in income from operations of real estate held for sale during 1997
as compared to 1996.

Higher average cash balances were available for investment due to the proceeds
received by the Partnership from the 1997 and 1996 property sales prior to
distribution to Partners. This resulted in an increase in interest income on
short-term investments in 1997 as compared to 1996.

Provisions are charged to income when the General Partner believes an
impairment has occurred to the value of its properties or in a borrower's
ability to repay a loan or in the value of the collateral property.
Determinations of fair value are made periodically on the basis of performance
under the terms of the loan agreement and assessments of property operations.
Determinations of fair value represent estimations based on many variables
which affect the value of real estate, including economic and demographic
conditions. During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership recognized
a provision of $256,000 to provide for changes in the estimate of the fair
value of the Hammond Aire Plaza Shopping Center. In addition, the Partnership
wrote off a previously established allowance of $388,809 related to the
Flamingo Pines Shopping Center. The Partnership did not recognize any
provisions for potential losses during the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

In connection with the February 1997 sale of the Park Central Office Building,
the Partnership wrote-off the remaining unamortized leasing commissions related
to the property, which resulted in an increase in amortization expense during
1997 as compared to 1996.
 
During February 1997, the General Partner made a payment relating to the
settlement of certain litigation to original investors who previously sold
their Interests in the Partnership. This payment was recorded as an
administrative expense. In addition, the Partnership incurred legal fees
related to this settlement. The Partnership also incurred increased legal,
printing and postage costs in connection with its responses to tender offers
during the first quarter of 1997. As a result, administrative expenses
increased during 1997 as compared to 1996. 

Participation in income of joint ventures with affiliates represented the
Partnership's share of the operations of the Sand Pebble Village - Phases I and
II and Jonathan's Landing apartment complexes and the 45 West 45th Street
Office Building. Due to the 1996 sales of these properties, participation in
income of joint ventures with affiliates ceased during 1996.

The Sun Lake Apartments and Perimeter 400 Center Office Building were both
owned by joint ventures with affiliates. As a result of the sales of these
properties during 1996, affiliate's participation in income of joint ventures
related to these properties ceased during 1996. Affiliates' participation in
income from joint venture during 1997 represents the operations of the
Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office Building, which remained relatively
unchanged compared to 1996 operations.
<PAGE>
During February 1997, the Partnership sold the Park Central Office Building. As
a result, the Partnership recognized a gain of $5,697,347 in connection with
this sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The cash position of the Partnership decreased by approximately $7,536,000 as
of March 31, 1997 when compared to December 31, 1996 primarily due to the
January 1997 payment of a special distribution to Limited Partners of proceeds
from the 1996 property sales, which was partially offset by net proceeds
received in connection with the sales of two properties in February 1997.
Operating activities generated cash of approximately $1,040,000, primarily as a
result of cash flow from the operations of the Partnership's properties and
interest income earned from short-term investments, net of the payment of
administrative expenses. Cash received from investing activities consisted of
net proceeds of approximately $30,854,000 from the sales of the Park Central
Office Building and the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center and expenditures of
approximately $428,000 for improvements to the Partnership's properties.
Financing activities consisted of distributions of sales proceeds paid to
Partners of approximately $39,187,000, a contribution by the General Partner of
approximately $230,000, and a distribution paid to joint venture partners of
approximately $45,000. In addition, in April 1997 the Partnership made a
special distribution to Limited Partners primarily from the net proceeds from
the February 1997 sales of the Park Central Office Building and the Flamingo
Pines Shopping Center as discussed below. 

The Partnership classifies the cash flow performance of its properties as
either positive, a marginal deficit, or a significant deficit, each after
consideration of debt service payments unless otherwise indicated. A deficit is
considered significant if it exceeds $250,000 annually or 20% of the property's
rental and service income. The Partnership defines cash flow generated from its
properties as an amount equal to the property's revenue receipts less property
related expenditures. During 1997 and 1996, all three of the Partnership's
properties owned at March 31, 1997 generated positive cash flow. The Park
Central Office Building and the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center also generated
positive cash flow during 1996 and prior to being sold in 1997. The Partnership
incurred significant leasing costs in 1997 at the Park Central Office Building
to lease vacant space and renew existing tenant leases which were scheduled to
expire. These nonrecurring expenditures were not included in classifying the
cash flow performance of the property. Had these expenditures been included,
the property would have generated a significant deficit in 1997. As of March
31, 1997, the occupancy rates of the Partnership's remaining properties ranged
from 87% to 94%.

During 1997, the Partnership sold the Park Central and Brookhollow/Stemmons
office buildings and the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center. During 1996, the
Partnership sold six properties and its minority joint venture interest in four
additional properties. Currently, the Partnership has entered into a contract
to sell the Hammond Aire Plaza Shopping Center for a sales price of
$13,800,000. In addition, the Partnership is actively marketing for sale the
420 North Wabash Office Building. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
<PAGE>
extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such
contingencies may include legal and other fees stemming from litigation
involving the Partnership including, but not limited to the lawsuit discussed
in Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements. In the absence of any contingency,
the reserves will be paid within twelve months of the last property being sold.
In the event a contingency exists, reserves may be held by the Partnership for
a longer period of time.

Pursuant to the sale agreement for 45 West 45th Street Office Building, which
was owned by a joint venture consisting of the Partnership and three
affiliates, $500,000 of the sale proceeds was retained by the joint venture and
was unavailable for distribution until April 1997, at which time the funds were
released in full. The Partnership's share was $206,499.

Pursuant to the sale agreement for the Perimeter 400 Center Office Building,
which was owned by a joint venture consisting of the Partnership and three
affiliates, $1,750,000 of the sale proceeds was retained by the joint venture
and is unavailable for distribution until September 1997. The Partnership's
share is $875,000.

In February 1997, the Partnership sold the Park Central Office Building in an
all cash sale for $21,471,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership
paid $470,891 in selling costs. Pursuant to the terms of the sale, the
Partnership is required to retain $1,100,000 of the sales proceeds until
November 1997. The remainder of the available proceeds was distributed to
Partners in April 1997. See Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements for
additional information.

In February 1997, the Partnership sold the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center in an
all cash sale for $10,200,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership
paid $346,400 in selling costs. The available proceeds were distributed to
Partners in April 1997. See Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements for
additional information.

The Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office Building was owned by a joint venture
consisting of the Partnership and an affiliate. In April 1997, the joint
venture sold the property in an all cash sale for $12,724,000. From the
proceeds of the sale, the joint venture paid $340,293 in selling costs. The net
proceeds of the sale were $12,383,707, of which $8,978,188 was the
Partnership's share. Pursuant to the terms of the sale, $250,000 of the sales
proceeds has been placed in escrow and will not be disbursed to the joint
venture until the earlier of the settlement of any claims presented by the
purchaser or October 1997. The remainder of the available proceeds is expected
to be distributed in 1997. See Note 7 of Notes to Financial Statements for
additional information.

In February 1997, the General Partner made a settlement payment of $207,384
($0.15 per Interest) to members of the class pursuant to the settlement
approved by the court in November 1996 in the Paul Williams and Beverly
Kennedy, et. al., v. Balcor Pension Investors, et. al. class action lawsuit.
The General Partner made a contribution of $230,427 to the Partnership, from
which the plaintiffs' counsel was paid $23,043 pursuant to the settlement
agreement. Of the total settlement amount, $124,075 was paid to the original
<PAGE>
investors who held their Limited Partnership Interests at the date of the
settlement and was recorded as a distribution to Limited Partners in the
Financial Statements. The remaining portion of the settlement of $83,309 was
paid to original investors who previously had sold their Interests in the
Partnership. This amount was recorded as an administrative expense in the
Financial Statements.

In February 1997, the Partnership discontinued the repurchase of Interests from
Limited Partners.

In April 1997, the Partnership paid a distribution of $43,343,319 ($31.35 per
Interest) to the holders of Limited Partnership Interests. This amount includes
the regular quarterly distribution from Cash Flow of $2.35 per Interest and a
special distribution of Mortgage Reductions of $29.00 per Interest from
proceeds received in connection with the sale of the Park Central Office
Building and the Flamingo Pines Shopping Center and from remaining available
proceeds from the 1996 property sales. Including the April 1997 distribution,
Limited Partners have received cash distributions totaling $299.71 per $250
Interest. Of this amount, $142.21 represents Cash Flow from operations and
$157.50 represents a return of Original Capital. In April 1997, the Partnership
also paid $270,751 to the General Partner as its distributive share of the Cash
Flow distributed for the first quarter of 1997 and made a contribution to the
Early Investment Incentive Fund of $90,251. Future distributions will be made
from available proceeds from sales of the Partnership's remaining properties.

Changing interest rates can impact real estate values in several ways.
Generally, declining interest rates may lower the cost of capital allowing
buyers to pay more for a property whereas rising interest rates may increase
the cost of capital and lower the price of real estate.

Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate
investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs
which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sale prices
depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation
can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead
to increased rental revenues and real estate values.

Item 5.  Other Information
- --------------------------

Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office Building
- -------------------------------------------

As previously reported, on March 27, 1997, the joint venture consisting of the
Partnership and an affiliate (the "Joint Venture") which owned the
Brookhollow/Stemmons Center Office Building, Dallas, Texas, contracted to sell
the property to an unaffiliated party, CMD Southwest, Inc., an Arizona
corporation, for a sale price of $13,000,000. The Joint Venture and the
Partnership subsequently agreed to reduce the sale price to $12,724,000. CMD
Southwest, Inc. assigned its rights under the agreement of sale to an
affiliate, CMD Realty Investment Fund III, L.P., an Illinois limited
partnership and the sale closed on April 29, 1997. From the proceeds of the
sale, the Joint Venture paid $254,480 as a brokerage commission to an affiliate

$85,813 in closing costs. The Joint Venture received the remaining proceeds of
$12,383,707. Of such proceeds, $250,000 has been placed in escrow and will not
