                     Condensed Notes to Financial Statement


(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     ------------------------------------------

     (a) General
     -----------

     Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Georgia public
     limited partnership having Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P., as
     General Partners. The Partnership was formed on December 1, 1992, for the

     Venture"); (iii) Fund VI and Fund VII Associates, a joint venture between
     the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P. (the "Fund VI-VII
     Joint Venture"); (iv) Fund II, Fund III, Fund VI and Fund VII Associates, a
     joint venture between the Partnership, Fund II and Fund III Associates, and

     II-OW, VI, VII Associates, a joint venture between the Partnership, Wells
     Estate Fund I, Wells Real Estate Fund II, Wells Real Estate Fund II-OW,
     and Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P. (the "Fund I,II,II-OW,VI,VII Joint
     Venture").

     As of June 30, 1999, the Partnership owned interests in the following

     four story office building located in Hartford, Connecticut (the "Hartford

     (the "Stockbridge Village II") which are owned by the Fund V - Fund VI
     Joint Venture; (iii) a three-story office building located in Appleton
     Wisconsin (the "Marathon Building") which is owned by the Fund V-VI-VII
     Joint Venture; (iv) two retail buildings located in Clayton County, Georgia
     (the "Stockbridge Village III") which are owned by the Fund VI - Fund VII
     Joint Venture; (v) a shopping center expansion located in Clayton County,

                                       7
<PAGE>

the Fund II-III-VI-VII Joint Venture; and (vii) a four story office building
located in Jacksonville, Florida (the "BellSouth Property") and (viii) a
shopping center located in Clemmons, North Carolina ( the "Tanglewood Commons")
which is owned by the Fund VI - VII - VIII Joint Venture; and (ix) a retail

properties were acquired on an all cash basis. For further information regarding
these joint ventures and properties, refer to the Partnership's Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1998.

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

The financial statements of Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P. ( the "Partnership")
have been   prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  These quarterly

presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature,
necessary to present a fair presentation of the results for such periods.  For
further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in
the Partnership's Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 1998.

joint ventures is recorded on the equity method. For further information, refer
to Form 10-K of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1998.


Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS.
--------------

Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Conditions
---------------------------------------------------------

(a) General
-----------
As of June 30, 1999, the properties owned by the Partnership were 97% as
compared to 94% occupied at June 30, 1998. Gross revenues of the Partnership
were $535,303 for the six months  ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $473,575
for the six months ended June 30, 1998.  The increase in revenues is attributed
primarily to funds invested in joint ventures, which increased the income
generated from the joint ventures, which offset the reduction in interest income
due to decreased funds available to earn interest.

Expenses of the Partnership were $55,609 for 1999, as compared to $42,924 for
1998. The increase in expenses for  1999, as compared to 1998, was primarily due
to increased partnership administration expenses and accounting fees.

Net income of the Partnership was $479,694 for the six months ended June 30,
1999, as compared to $430,651 for the same period in 1998.  The increase in net
income for 1999, from 1998, is due primarily to increased revenues partially
offset by increased expenses as noted above.

Net cash used in operating activities increased from $34,769 in 1998 to $52,490
in 1999.  This increase was due primarily to increased expenses and decreased
interest income. Net cash provided by investing activities increased for the six
months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the same period in 1998, due
primarily to a decrease in investments in joint ventures and an increase in
joint venture distributions.  Partnership distributions also decreased slightly
in 1999, as compared to 1998. These changes produced cash and cash equivalents
of $215,093 and $142,792 at June 30, 1998, and 1999, respectively.

The Partnership made cash distributions to Limited Partners holding Class A
Units of $.21 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to
distributions of $.20 per Class A Unit for the same period in 1998.  No cash
distributions were made to Limited Partners holding Class B Units or to the
General Partners.

The Partnership expects to continue to meet its short-term liquidity
requirements and budget demands generally through net cash provided by
operations which the Partnership believes will continue to be adequate to meet
both operating requirements and distributions to Limited Partners.   At this
time, given the nature of the joint ventures in which the Partnership has
invested, there are no know improvements and renovations to the properties
expected to be funded from cash flow from operations.

Year 2000
---------

The Partnership is presently reviewing the potential impact of Year 2000
compliance issues on its information systems and business operations.  A full
assessment of Year 2000 compliance issues was begun in late 1997 and was
completed by March 31, 1999.  Renovations and replacements of equipment have
been and are being made as warranted.  The costs incurred by the Partnership and
its affiliates thus far for renovations and replacements have been immaterial.
As of June 30, 1999, all testing of systems has been completed.

                                       9
<PAGE>

As to the status of the Partnerships' information technology systems, it is
presently believed that all major systems and software are Year 2000 compliant.
At the present time, it is believed that all major non-information technology
systems are Year 2000 compliant.  The cost to upgrade any noncompliance systems
is believed to be immaterial.

The Partnership has confirmed with the Partnership's vendors, including third-
party service providers such as banks, that their systems are Year 2000
compliant.

The Partnership relies on computers and operating systems provided by equipment
manufacturers, and also on application software designed for use with its
accounting, property management and investment portfolio tracking.  The
Partnership has preliminary determined that any costs, problems or uncertainties
associated with the potential consequences of Year 2000 issues are not expected
to have a material impact on the future operations or financial condition of the
Partnership.  The Partnership will perform due diligence as to the Year 2000
readiness of each property owned by the Partnership and each property
contemplated for purchase by the Partnership.

The Partnership's reliance on embedded computer systems (i.e. microcontrollers)
is limited to facilities related matters, such as office security systems and
environmental control systems.

The Partnership is currently formulating contingency plans to cover any areas of
concern.  Alternate means of operating the business are being developed in the
unlikely circumstance that the computer and phone systems are rendered
inoperable.  An off-site facility from which the Partnership could operate is
being sought as well as alternate means of communication with key third-party
vendors.  A written plan is being developed for testing and dispensation to each
staff member of the General Partner of the Partnership.

Management believes that the Partnership's risk of Year 2000 problems is
minimal.  In the unlikely event there is a problem, the worst case scenarios
would include the risks that the elevator or security systems within the
Partnership's properties would fail or the key third-party vendors upon which
the Partnership relies would be unable to provide accurate investor information.
In the event that the elevator shuts down,  the Partnership has devised a plan
for each building whereby the tenants will use the stairs until the elevators
are fixed.  In the event that the security system shuts down, the Partnership
has devised a plan for each building to hire temporary on-site security guards.
In the event that a third-party vendor has Year 2000 problems relating to
investor information, the Partnership intends to perform a full system back-up
of all investor information as of December 31, 1999, so that the Partnership
will have accurate hard-copy investor information.

</TABLE>

     Net income increased and expenses decreased for the six months ended June
     30, 1999, as compared to 1998, due primarily to a greater insurance
     reimbursement from the tenant in 1999, which was recorded in the second
     quarter of 1999, in other operating expenses.

     The Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture
     increased due to additional fundings by the Partnership, which caused an
     increase in the Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V - Fund VI
     Joint Venture.

</TABLE>

     Net income and cash distribution to the Partnership increased in 1999, as
     compared to 1998, due primarily to increased occupancy and a reduction in
     landscape expenses, parking lot repairs and other operating expenses.

     The Partnership's ownership percentage in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint
     Venture increased due to additional fundings by the Partnership, which
     caused a increase in the Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V -
     Fund VI Joint Venture.

</TABLE>

     The increase in management and leasing fees for the six months ended June
     30, 1999, was due to an underaccrual of fees from 1998.  The increase in
     operating expenses was due primarily to increases in accounting and
     administrative fees.

     Cash distributions allocated to the Partnership and net income allocated to
     the Partnership remained relatively stable for the six months ended June
     30, 1999 and 1998.

</TABLE>

Net income increased for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the
same period in 1998, due to an increase in occupancy and a decrease in other
operating expenses due to a bad debt reserve recorded in 1998, which
overinflated 1998 expenses.

The Partnership's ownership percentage in the Fund VI-Fund VII Joint Venture
increased to 43.7% for 1999, as compared to 43.1% in 1998, due to additional
fundings by the Partnership.

</TABLE>


Rental income has increased for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared
to the same period in 1998, due primarily to an underestimate of straight line
rent adjustments in 1998.  The expenses went down due to common area maintenance
reimbursements.  Tenants are billed an estimated amount for the current year
common area maintenance which is then reconciled the second quarter of the
following year and the difference is billed to the tenant.

</TABLE>

The Partnership's ownership percentage in the Fund VI-Fund VII Joint Venture
increased to 43.7% for 1999, as compared to 43.1% in 1998, due to additional
funding by the Partnership.

Net income increased for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the
same period in 1998, due to an increase in occupancy and a decrease in other
operating expenses due to common area maintenance reimbursements being greater
in 1999. Tenants are billed an estimated amount for the current year common area
maintenance which is then reconciled the second quarter of the following year
and the difference billed to the tenant.

Rental income, depreciation expense and management and leasing expenses have
increased in 1999, as compared to 1998, due to the increased occupancy at the
center.  Other operating expenses increased in 1999 over 1998, due primarily to
a timing difference in billing tenants for common area maintenance expenses.
Tenants are billed an estimated amount for the current year common area
maintenance which is then reconciled the second quarter of the following year
and the difference billed to the tenant.

Rental income increased in 1999 over 1998, due primarily to increased occupancy.
The decrease in operating expenses for the six month period ended June 30, 1999,
as compared to the same period in 1998, was due to common area maintenance
reimbursement billings. Tenants are billed an estimated amount for the current
year common are maintenance which is then reconciled the second quarter of the
following year and the difference billed to the tenant.  The increase in
operating expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 1999 was due to
increased expenditures for tenant improvements, HVAC repairs and a partial
demolition of a tenant suite.
