| | (a)  Organization and Business | 
| | ------------------------------ | 

| |  | Wells Real Estate Fund VI, LP (the Partnership) is a Georgia public limited partnership with Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, LP (Wells Partners), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership,
serving as the General Partners. The Partnership was formed on December 1, 1992, for the purpose of acquiring, developing, constructing, owning, operating, improving, leasing, and otherwise managing income producing properties for investment
purposes. The Partnership has two classes of limited partnership interests, Class A and Class B units. The limited partners have the right to change their prior elections to have some or all of their units treated as Class A units or Class B units
one time during each quarterly accounting period and may vote to, among other things, (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain limitations, (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of the Partnership, and (c) add or
remove a general partner. A majority vote on any of the above described matters will bind the Partnership without the concurrence of the general partners. Each limited partnership unit has equal voting rights regardless of class.

| | (b)  Basis of Presentation | 
| | -------------------------- | 

| |  | The financial statements of the Partnership have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. The quarterly statements have not been examined by independent accountants. However, in the opinion of the General Partners, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments that

| | (c)  Distribution of Net Cash From Operations |

| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Second, to the General Partners until each General Partner has received distributions equal to 10% of the total distributions declared by the Partnership per
annum.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Third, to the Class A limited partners and the General Partners allocated on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | No distributions will be made to the limited partners holding Class B units.
| |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (d)  Impairment of Real Estate Assets | 
| | ------------------------------------- | 

| |  | On January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Under this accounting standard, management reviews each of the properties in which the partnership
holds an interest for impairment as events or changes in circumstances arise, which indicate that the carrying amounts of such assets may not be recoverable and the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by such assets are less than
the respective carrying amounts. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the Partnership records impairment losses and reduces the carrying amounts of the impaired assets to amounts that reflect the fair value of the assets at the time
impairment is evident.
| |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Management also reviews estimated selling prices of assets held for sale and records impairment losses to reduce the carrying amount of assets held for sale when the carrying amounts exceed the estimated selling prices
less costs to sell. Material long-lived assets held for sale are separately identified in the balance sheets, and the related net operating income is segregated as income from discontinued operations in the statements of income. Depreciation is not
recorded for long-lived assets held for sale. If an asset held for sale reverts to an asset used in operations, the asset will be measured at the lower of the original carrying cost, adjusted for the forgone depreciation, or the fair value at the
date of the decision to hold the assets for use in operations. Neither the Partnership nor its joint ventures have recognized impairment losses to date.

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with accompanying financial statements of the Partnership and notes thereto.
| |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (a)  Forward-Looking Statements | 
| | ------------------------------- | 

| |  | This report contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including discussion and analysis of the financial condition
of the Partnership, anticipated capital expenditures required to complete certain projects, amounts of cash distributions anticipated to be distributed to limited partners in the future and certain other matters. Readers of this report should be
aware that there are various factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made in this report including lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon expiration of existing leases, and the
potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow.
| |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (b)  Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Conditions | 
| | -------------------------------------------------------------- | 

| |  | RevenuesGross revenues increased to $825,051 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002,
from $804,115 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, primarily due to the increase in equity in income of joint ventures resulting from (i) increased rental rates at Stockbridge Village I Expansion, (ii) uncollectible receivables due from
tenants at Stockbridge Village III that were written-off during the second half of 2001, (iii) increased rental rates at the BellSouth Building commencing in July 2001, (iv) receivables due from tenants at Tanglewood Commons that were written off in
2001, (v) receivables due from tenants at the Holcomb Bridge Property that were written-off in 2001 and subsequently collected in 2002, and (vi) decreased depreciation expense for the BellSouth Building as tenant improvements became fully
depreciated upon the expiration of the BellSouth lease commencing in June 2001. The increase in equity in income of joint ventures was partially offset by (i) a decrease in occupancy of the Holcomb Bridge Property during the preceding twelve months,
(ii) a decrease in interest income earned by the Partnerships joint ventures in 2002 due to the general decline in interest rates, and (iii) a reduction in net income generated from Fund I-II-IIOW-VI-VII Associates relating to the sale of the
Cherokee Commons property in the fourth quarter of 2001.
| |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Gross revenues decreased to $274,324 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, from $296,046 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, primarily due to (i) the reduction in net income generated from Fund
I-II-IIOW-VI-VII Associates and decrease in occupancy of the Holcomb Bridge Property as previously discussed, and (ii) repair expenses incurred at the BellSouth Building and Tanglewood Commons during the three months ended September 30, 2002,
partially offset by uncollectible receivables due from tenants at Stockbridge Village III that were written off during the third quarter of 2001.
| |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | 100% of the space at the Hartford Building was re-leased for a period of 10 years effective December 1, 2002. Based on the terms of the new lease, rental revenues for the Hartford building are expected to increase by
approximately 2% over the new lease term.
| |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  | ExpensesExpenses increased to $72,098 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, compared
to $66,957 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, due to an increase in professional services fees.
| |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | As a result, net income decreased to $752,953 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 from $738,158 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.
| |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | DistributionsThe Partnership made distributions to the limited partners holding Class A units
of $0.60 per unit with respect to the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. Such distributions have been made from net cash from operations and distributions received from investments in joint ventures. No distributions have been made to
the limited partners holding Class B units or to the General Partners.
| |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | The General Partners guidance with regard to future operating cash distributions to the limited partners holding Class A units is that such distributions may decline in the near term as the Partnership funds its
portion of leasing costs and tenant improvements related to the renewal of a 10 year lease agreement executed by the sole tenant of the Hartford Building effective December 1, 2002.
| |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (c)  Liquidity and Capital Resources | 
| | ------------------------------------ | 

| |  | Net cash used in operating activities decreased slightly to $65,697 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, compared $67,570 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, primarily due to the increase in
professional services fees explained in the previous section. Net cash provided by investing activities decreased to $1,423,702 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 from $1,498,548 for the same period in 2001 due to a corresponding decrease
in earnings generated from joint ventures during the preceding accounting periods, which is primarily a result of the reduction in earnings generated from Fund I-II-IIOW-VI-VII Associates due to the sale of the Cherokee Commons property on October
1, 2001. The Partnership receives distributions based on the earnings generated from its joint ventures during the respective immediately preceding quarterly accounting periods. Net cash used in financing activities decreased to $1,361,521 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2002 from $1,430,912 for the same period in 2001 due to the corresponding decrease in cash available for distributions to Class A limited partners resulting from the aforementioned decrease in cash flows provided by
investing activities. The Partnership expects to continue to meets its short-term liquidity requirements, generally through the use of net cash from operations and distributions received from investments in joint ventures.
| |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Rather than being distributed to the limited partners, the Partnerships share of the net proceeds generated from the sale of Cherokee Commons is currently being held as reserves to fund anticipated tenant
improvements and leasing costs associated with the releasing of space at the Holcomb Bridge property. The Partnership expects to continue to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through net cash provided by operations and
distributions received from joint ventures.
| |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (d)  Inflation | 
| | -------------- | 

| |  | The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past three years due to the relatively low inflation rate. Most tenant leases include provisions designed to protect the Partnership from the
impact of inflation and increases in costs and other operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate tax and insurance reimbursement billings to tenants either on a per square foot basis or above a certain allowance per square
foot annually. In addition, a number of the Partnerships leases are for remaining terms of less than five years, which may allow the Partnership to enter into new leases at higher base rental rates in the event that market rental rates rise
above the existing lease rates. There is no assurance, however, that the Partnership would be able to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rental rates.
| |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (e)  Critical Accounting Policies | 
| | --------------------------------- | 

| |  | The Partnerships accounting policies have been established and conformed to in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgments in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements presented and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances
relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied; thus, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements.
| |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | The accounting policies that we consider to be critical, in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain, are discussed below. For further
information related to the Partnerships accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies described below, refer to the report filed for the Partnership on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
| |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Straight-Lined Rental RevenuesThe Partnership recognizes rental income generated from all
leases on real estate assets in which the Partnership has an ownership interest through its investments in joint ventures on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Should tenants encounter financial difficulties in future
periods, the amounts recorded as receivables may not be fully realized.
| |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Operating Cost ReimbursementsThe Partnership generally bills tenants for operating cost
reimbursements through its investments in joint ventures on a monthly basis at amounts estimated largely based on actual prior period activity and the respective tenant lease terms. Such billings are generally adjusted on an annual basis to reflect
reimbursements owed to the landlord based on the actual costs incurred during the period and the respective tenant lease terms. Should tenants encounter financial difficulties in future periods, the amounts recorded as receivables may not be fully
realized.
| |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  | Real EstateManagement continually monitors events and changes in circumstances indicating
that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets in which the Partnership has ownership interests through its investments in joint ventures may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, management assesses the
potential impairment by comparing the fair market value of the underlying assets, estimated at amounts equal to the future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated from tenants over the life of the assets and from their eventual
disposition, to the carrying value of the assets. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair market value, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss in the amount required to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to
its estimated fair market value. Neither the Partnership nor its joint ventures have recognized impairment losses to date.
| |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

| |  | Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Partnership carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management of Wells Capital, Inc.,
the corporate general partner of the General Partner of the Partnership, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnerships disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Rule 13a  14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Partnerships disclosure controls and procedures
were effective.
| |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | There were no significant changes in the Partnerships internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect such controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
