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, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were as follows:

     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.


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
under Business for a discussion of the average  occupancy rate for each property
owned by the  Partnership.  The  following  table sets forth  information  as of
December 31, 2003 regarding properties owned by the Partnership.

Item 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2003 COMPARED TO 2002

     Total revenues decreased from $2,842,325 in 2002 to $2,786,419 in 2003,
while total expenses decreased from $1,777,129 to $1,547,484 and other income
decreased from $1,435 to $879, resulting in an increase in net income from
$1,066,631 to t$1,239,814.  Rental revenues decreased as a result of lower
unit rental rates, partially offset by higher occupancy rates.  Occupancy
levels for the Partnership's seven mini-storage facilities averaged 85.1% for
the year 2003 as compared to 84.2% for 2002.  Depreciation decreased as the
Partnership's properties became essentially fully depreciated during the
current year.  Operating expenses remained relatively constant as increases
in real estate tax and salaries and wages expenses was offset by decreases in
maintenance and repair and workers compensation insurance expenses.  General
and administrative expenses increased approximatley $31,900 (15.7%) primarily
as a result of higher legal and professional expense, partially offset by
decreases in equipment and computer lease and office supplies and printing
expense.  Legal expense increased as a result of legal challenges by dissident
Limited Partners to a proposed amendment to the Partnership Agreement (see
paragraph below).  The General Partners' incentive management fee which is
based on cash available for distribution, decreased as a result of the de-
crease in net cash provided by operating activities.  Property management fees,
which are based on revenues, decreased as a result of the decrease in rental
revenue.

2002 COMPARED TO 2001

     Total revenues decreased from $3,109,553 in 2001 to $2,842,325 in 2002,
while total expenses decreased  from  $1,825,103 to $1,777,129  and other
income decreased  from $5,748 to $1,435, resulting in a decrease in net income
from $1,290,198 to $1,066,631.  Rental revenues decreased as a result of lower
occupancy and unit rental rates.  Occupancy  levels for the  Partnership's
seven mini-storage facilities  averaged 84.2%  for the  year 2002 as compared
to 87.0% for 2001. The increase in operating expenses of approximately $46,900
(5.8%) was due primarily to increases in real estate tax, workers compensation
insurance and security  alarm  services  expenses, partially offset by a
decrease in maintenance and repair expense.  General  and  administrative
expenses increased approximately $33,200  (19.6%) primarily as a  result of
higher legal  and professional and equipment and computer lease expenses,
partially offset by a decrease in office supplies  and printing  expense. The
General Partners' incentive management  fee which is  based on cash available
for distribution, decreased as a  result of the  decrease in net income.
Property  management fees, which are based on revenues, decreased as a result
of the decrease in  rental revenue.

     Operating expenses consists mainly of expenses such as yellow pages and
other advertising, utilities, repairs and maintenance, real estate taxes,
salaries and wages and their related expenses.  General and administrative
expenses consist mainly of expenses such as legal and professional, office
supplies, accounting services and computer expenses.


                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Net cash  provided  by  operating  activities  decreased approximately
$163,700 (10.8%) in 2003 compared to 2002 primarily due to the decreases in
depreciation, incentive management fees payable and customer deposits and
other liabilities, partially offset by an increase in net income.  Net cash
provided by operating activities decreased approximately $233,300 (13.3%) in
2002 compared to 2001 primarily due to the decreases in net income and other
assets, partially offset by a decrease in depreciation.

     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 1%, 3.5%, and 5% of capital contributed by limited partners
were declared and paid on December 15, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively.

     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.

     On April 5, 2002, the General Partners received a copy of a hostile tender
offer from MacKenzie Patterson, Inc. and associated corporations and limited
partnerships to purchase all of the Units in the Partnership,  This offer was
also filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the same date.  The
General Partners determined that the hostile tender offer was not in the best
interests of the Limited Partners, that the tender offer was grossly inadequate
given the performance history of the Limited Partnership and the inherent value
of the Units, and recommended that the  Limited Partners  reject the  hostile
tender offer and not tender their Units pursuant thereto. The offer was sub-
sequently increased and extended to June 30, 2002 and again to July 22, 2002.
The General Partners' initial  determination  regarding the  offer has  not
changed.  Prior to the expiration date of the offer, Limited Partners tendered
30 Units representing 0.15% of the outstanding Units of the Partnership.

     The Limited Partners have approved an amendment to the Partnership
Agreement granting the General Partners ten days to review certain types of
transfers during which the General Partners may match, exeed or approve the
proposed transfers.  The Court has rejected all preliminary attempts to halt
implementation of the amendment.  Subsequently, the dissident Limited Partners
who initiated the legal proceedings decided not to pursue the matter any
further.

     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 anticipates that cash flows generated
from operations of the Partnership's rental real estate operations will be
sufficient to cover operating expenses and distribtuions for the next twelve
months and beyond.

     The General  Partners  are not aware of any  environmental  problems  which
could  have a  material  adverse  effect  upon  the  financial  position  of the
Partnership.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Partnership evaluated
     the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures.  This evalu-
     ation was performed by the Partnership's Controller with the assistance
     of the Partnership's President and the Chief Executive Officer. These
     disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the inform-
     ation required to be disclosed by the Parnership it its periodic reports
     filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") is
     recorded, processed summarized and reported, within the time periods
     specified by the Commission's rules and forms, and that the information
     is communicated to the certifying officers on a timely basis.  Based on
     this evaluation, the Partnership concluded that its disclosure controls
     and procedures were effective.  There have been no significant changes
     in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors that could
     significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date of
     their evaluation.




INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Partners of
DSI Realty Income Fund VI:

We have audited the accompanying  balance sheets of DSI Realty Income Fund VI,
a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") as of December 31, 2003
and 2002,  and  the related  statements  of  income,  changes in  partners'
equity (deficit),  and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2003.  Our audits also included the financial statement
schedule listed in the Index at Item 14. These financial statements and the
financial statement schedule 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  auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America.  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 reason-
able 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,
2003 and 2002,  and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three  years in the  period  ended  December  31, 2003, in  conformity  with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also,
in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all
material respects, the information set forth therein.

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VI
(A California Real Estate Limited Partnership)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003


1.   GENERAL

     DSI  Realty  Income  Fund  VI, a  California  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 per unit.  The  general
     partners have made no capital contributions  to the Partnership and are not
     required to make any capital contributions  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,  defined as the  entire  amount  of
     all receipts from  the  renting or  leasing of storage  compartments  and
     sale of locks.

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 composed
     primarily 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 basis
     of the Partnership's assets and liabilities for federal income tax purposes
     and as reported for financial statement purposes is $120,254.

     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.

     Estimates - The  preparation  of financial  statements in  conformity  with
     accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
     requires the Partnership to make estimates and  assumptions  that affect
     the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contin-
     gent 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 undiscounted future cash flow is less than the
     carrying amount of the asset,the Partnership would recognize an impairment
     loss to the extent the carrying  value exceeded  the fair  value of  the
     property. No impairment losses were required in 2003, 2002, or 2001.

     Fair  Value of  Financial Instruments - The  Partnership's  financial
     instruments consist primarily of cash, receivables, accounts payable and
     accrued liabilities.  The carrying values of all financial instruments are
     representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

     Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial  instruments  that  potentially
     subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily
     of cash and cash equivalents and rent receivables.  The Partnership places
     its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions.

     Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In 2002, the Partnership
     adopted the following prouncements:  Statement of Financial Accounting
     Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-
     Lived Assets; SFAS No 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No 4, 44, 64,
     Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.  The
     adoption of these pronouncements did not have a material impact on the
     Partnership's financial position or results of operations. The Partnership
     believes the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpre-
     tation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, will not have
     a material impact on the financial statements.

3.   PROPERTY

     The total cost of property and  accumulated depreciation is as follows
     as of December 31:

                                                  2003                2002

                                              ===========         ===========

4.   ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES AND GENERAL PARTNERS' INCENTIVE
     MANAGEMENT FEE

     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 loss
     es 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, the 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, calculated as cash generated from
     operations less capital expenditures.


5.   BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The following disclosure about segment reporting of the Partnership is
     made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures
     about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.  The Partnership
     operates in a single segment; storage facility operations, under which
     the Partnership rents its storage facilities to its customers on a need
     basis and charges rent on a predetermined rate.
