PART I

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 March 27, 1981. The General Partners are
DSI Properties, Inc., a California corporation, and 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, the Partnership 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 (1%) 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.

The
Partnership 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 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  the Partnership 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 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 the
Partnership.  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.

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, the Partnership's
business is not affected by the change in seasons.

PART
II

ITEM
5.  MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Market
Information

The
Partnership is a limited partnership and thus has no common stock. 
There is no established trading market for limited partnership
interests in the Partnership and it is not anticipated that any such
public market will develop. The Limited Partnership Agreement
effectively prevents the transfer of Limited Partnership Interests
except under very limited circumstances.  In order to transfer a
Limited Partner­ship Interest, a Limited Partner must obtain the
consent of the General Partners of the Partnership, which have the
absolute right to refuse any request for a transfer. In
addition, the proposed transferee must meet all applicable
suitability standards and agree to be bound by the Limited
Partnership Agreement.

Approximate
Number of Security Holders

As
of December 31, 2009, there were approximately 790holders of Limited Partnership Interests.

Distributions

Average
cash distributions of $9.58
per Limited Partnership Unit were declared and paid each quarter for
the year ended December 31, 2009 and $12.70
per
Limited Partnership Unit were declared and paid each quarter for the
year ended December 31, 2008. It is the Partnership expectation that
distributions will continue to be paid in the future.

ITEM
6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not

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

Critical
Accounting Policies

Revenue
recognition - 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.

RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

2009 COMPARED TO 2008

Total
revenues decreased from $2,705,520in 2008 to $2,506,507 in 2009,
while total expenses decreased from $1,553,424 to $1,520,706,
resulting in a decrease in net income from $1,152,096 to $985,801.
 Rental revenues decreased primarily as a result of decreased occupancy rates
and poor economic conditions nationwide.  Occupancy levels for the Partnership’s
mini-storage facilities averaged 76.3% for the year 2009 as compared
to 80.5% for 2008.  The $23,611 (2.5%) increase in operating expenses
was due primarily to increases in truck lease expenses, and
salaries and wages expenses, partially offset by a decrease in
advertising, and repairs and maintenance expense.  General and administrative expenses
decreased approximately $5,387 (1.8%) primarily as a result of lower
office supplies expenses. The General Partners’
incentive management fee which is based on cash available for
distribution, decreased as a result of the decrease in net cash
provided by operating activities.

Operating
expenses consist mainly of expenses such as yellow pages and other
advertising, utilities, 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
$247,506 (19.9%) in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily due to the
decrease in net income from continuing operations.

Cash used
in investing activities, consists of acquisition of property or capital
improvements to the Partnership's mini storage facilities. There were no
material investing activities in either 2008 or 2009.
The Partnership currently has no
material commitments for capital expenditures.

Cash
used in financing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash
flows, has consisted solely of cash distributions to partners in 2009
and 2008 and payments on capital lease obligations.  Special
distributions of 0.5% and 3.0%, of capital contributed by Limited
Partners were declared and paid on December 15, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.Current
economic conditions continue to negatively impact the self storage
industry and our investment portfolio. The ongoing recession, increased government
intervention and higher taxes have all had a detrimental affect on
the performance
of all properties. Also, high unemployment rates are
affecting people’s discretionary income and their ability to
afford storage.

With the
continuing crisis in the housing and lending markets, very few new facilities are being built.
We anticipate that when the
financial markets stabilize and the economy begins to grow again,
occupancies and income should rebound quickly.

The
General Partners plan to continue to improve and maintain 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
distributions 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.

LONG-TERM
LIABILITIES, CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, 
AND

ITEM
9A (T).CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES

The
Partnership’s management, with the participation of the
principal executive officer and principal financial officer of DSI
Properties, Inc., its General Partner, who are the equivalent of the
Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of
the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the“Exchange
Act”))
as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such
evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial
officer of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the
Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end
of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and
procedures are effective.

Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The
Partnership’s management is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed
by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and
principal financial officers of the General Partner, who are the
equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, respectively, and effected by the
Partnership’s management and other personnel to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
and includes those policies and procedures that:

- pertain
	to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately
	and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets;
- provide
	reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
	permit preparation of financial statements in
	accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that
	receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with
	authorizations of the Partnership’s management; and
- provide
	reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
	unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could
	have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the
risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate.

The
Partnership's management assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership's
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making
this assessment, the Partnership's management used the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

Based on
their assessment, the Partnership's management concluded that, as of December
31, 2009, the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting was
effective.

This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the
Partnership’s registered public accounting firm regarding
internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report
was not subject to the attestation by the Partnership’s
registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Partnership to
provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There
have been no significant changes in the Partnership’s internal
control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2009
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial
reporting.

equal to 9% per annum of the cash available for distribution on a
cumulative basis, calculated as cash generated from operations less

2009
ANNUAL REPORT TO LIMITED PARTNERS OF 
DSI
REALTY INCOME FUND VI

Financial Statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2009

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To
the 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, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of
income, changes in partners' equity (deficit), and cash flows for
each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2009.  Our
audits also included the supplemental schedule listed in the Index at
Item 15(2).  These financial statements and the supplemental schedule
are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
and supplemental schedule based on our audits.

We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we
engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control
over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership's
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no
such opinion.

An
audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of DSI Realty Income Fund VI at
December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2009, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. Also, in our opinion, the supplemental schedule referred to above, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2009

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 mini-storage facilities  located in Vallejo,
California;  Arvada,  Federal Heights and Colorado Springs,
Colorado; 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 (see Note 6).

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 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. Property under capital leases is amortized over the
lesser of the lives of the respective leases or the estimated useful
lives of the assets.

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 for the year ended
December 31, 2009 and 2008 is $(6,770) and
$23,040, respectively.

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.

Advertising Expense - Costs related to advertising in Yellow Pages are
capitalized and amortized over 12 months. All other advertising costs are
expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2009
and 2008 were $144,563 and $156,265 respectively.

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 contingent 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 2009 or 2008.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments - For all financial instruments,
including cash and cash equivalents, other assets, distributions due
to partners, incentive management fee payable to general partners,
property management
fee payable, and customer deposits and other liabilities, carrying
values approximate fair values because of the short maturity of those
instruments. The carrying value of the capital lease obligations
approximates fair value because the terms of the instrument are
similar to terms available to the Partnership for similar types of
leasing agreements.

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.Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April
2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10 (formerly FASB Staff Position No. FAS 107-1 and
APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments) ("ASC
825-10"), which requires that the fair value disclosures required for all financial
instruments within the scope of SFAS 107,  "Disclosures about Fair Value of
Financial Instruments," be included in interim financial statements.  This FSP
also requires entities to disclose the method and significant assumptions used
to estimate the fair value of financial instruments on an interim and annual
basis and to highlight any changes from prior periods.  ASC 825-10 was effective
for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted. 
The adoption of ASC 825-10 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's
financial statements. 
In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855-10 (formerly Statement No. 165, Subsequent
Events) ("ASC 855-10"). ASC 855-10 establishes general standards of accounting for and
disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before
financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  In accordance
with this Statement, entities should apply the requirements to interim or annual
financial periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of this statement
did not have a material impact on the Partnership's financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB approved its Accounting Standards Codification, or
Codification, as the single source of authoritative United States accounting and
reporting standards applicable for all non-governmental entities, with the
exception of the SEC and its staff.  The Codification, which changes the
referencing of financial standards, is effective for interim or annual financial
periods ending after September 15, 2009.  Therefore, starting from the third
quarter of fiscal year 2009, all references made to US GAAP will use the new
Codification numbering system prescribed by the FASB.  As the Codification is
not intended to change or alter existing US GAAP, it did not have any impact on
the Partnership's financial statements.
As a result of the Partnership's implementation of the Codification during the
year ended December 31, 2009, previous references to new accounting
standards and literature are no longer applicable.  In the current
financial statements, the Partnership will provide reference to both new and old
guidance to assist in understanding the impact of recently adopted accounting
literature, particularly for guidance adopted since the beginning of the current
fiscal year but prior to the Codification.
In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05 ("ASU
2009-05"), "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Measuring
Liabilities at Fair Value."  ASU 2009-05 amends Subtopic 820-10, "Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures - Overall," and provides clarification for the fair
value measurement of liabilities.  ASU 2009-05 is effective for the first
reporting period including interim period beginning after issuance.  The
Partnership does not expect the adoption of ASU 2009-05 to have a material
impact on its financial statements.
