                       CONSOLIDATED CAPITAL PROPERTIES VI
                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements of Consolidated
Capital  Properties VI (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information  and  with the  instructions  to Form  10-QSB  and  Item  310(b)  of
Regulation  S-B.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial  statements.  In the opinion of ConCap  Equities,  Inc.  ("CEI" or the
"General  Partner"),  all adjustments  (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been  included.  Operating
results for the three month  period ended March 31,  2001,  are not  necessarily
indicative  of the  results  that may be  expected  for the fiscal  year  ending
December 31, 2001. For further information,  refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's  Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. The General  Partner is
a  subsidiary  of Apartment  Investment  and  Management  Company  ("AIMCO"),  a
publicly traded real estate investment trust.

Principles of Consolidation

The  Partnership's  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  Colony of
Springdale Associates, Ltd. ("Colony Associates"),  which holds fee title to the
Colony of Springdale  Apartments.  The results of its operations are included in
the   Partnership's   consolidated   financial   statements.   All   interentity
transactions between the Partnership and Colony Associates have been eliminated.

Note B - Related Party Transactions

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership  activities.
The Partnership  Agreement  provides for payments to affiliates for services and
the  reimbursement of certain  expenses  incurred by affiliates on behalf of the
Partnership.  The following expenses were paid or accrued to an affiliate of the
General Partner during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000:

                                                                  2001      2000
                                                                  (in thousands)

 Property management fees (included in operating expenses)        $ 23      $ 21
 Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included in
   investment property and general and administrative
   expenses)                                                        30        18
 Partnership management fees (included in general and
   administrative expenses)                                         46        --

During the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, affiliates of the General
Partner were  entitled to receive 5% of gross  receipts  from the  Partnership's
property  as  compensation  for  providing  property  management  services.  The
Partnership paid to such affiliates  approximately  $23,000 and $21,000 for each
of the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

An  affiliate  of the General  Partner  received  reimbursement  of  accountable
administrative  expenses amounting to approximately  $30,000 and $18,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The Partnership Agreement also provides for a special management fee equal to 9%
of the total  distributions  made from operations to the Limited  Partners to be
paid  to  the  General  Partner  for  executive  and  administrative  management
services.  The General  Partner  received  approximately  $46,000 in March 2001,
resulting  from a  distribution  declared and paid during the three months ended
March 31,2001.  The General Partner received  approximately  $102,000 in January
2000, resulting from the distribution declared in December 1999. No such fee was
earned in 2000.

In addition to its  indirect  ownership of the general  partner  interest in the
Partnership,  AIMCO and its affiliates  currently own 88,125 limited partnership
units in the Partnership  representing 48.61% of the outstanding units. A number
of these  units were  acquired  pursuant  to tender  offers made by AIMCO or its
affiliates.  It is possible that AIMCO or its  affiliates  will make one or more
additional offers to acquire  additional  limited  partnership  interests in the
Partnership  for cash or in exchange for units in the operating  partnership  of
AIMCO either through private  purchases or tender offers.  Under the Partnership
Agreement,  unitholders  holding a majority  of the Units are  entitled  to take
action  with  respect to a variety  of  matters,  which  would  include  without
limitation, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting
to remove the General  Partner.  As a result of its  ownership  of 48.61% of the
outstanding units, AIMCO is in a position to significantly  influence all voting
decisions with respect to the Registrant. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in
all likelihood vote the Units it acquired in a manner  favorable to the interest
of the General Partner because of its affiliation with the General Partner.

Note C - Change in Status of Non-Corporate General Partner

During the year ended December 31, 1991, the  Partnership  Agreement was amended
to convert the  general  partner  interests  held by the  non-corporate  general
partner,  Consolidated  Capital  Group II  ("CCG"),  to that of special  limited
partners ("Special Limited Partners").  The Special Limited Partners do not have
a vote and do not have any of the other rights of a Limited  Partner  except the
right to inspect  the  Partnership's  books and  records;  however,  the Special
Limited Partners  retained the economic  interest in the Partnership  which they
previously owned as general partner.

ConCap Equities, Inc. ("CEI") became the sole general partner of the Partnership
effective  December 31, 1991. In  connection  with CCG's  conversion,  a special
allocation of gross income was made to the Special Limited  Partners in order to
eliminate its tax basis negative capital account.

After the conversion,  the various Special Limited Partners transferred portions
of their  interests to CEI so that CEI now holds a .2% interest in all allocable
items of income,  loss and  distribution.  The  differences  between the Special
Limited  Partners'  capital  accounts for financial  statement and tax reporting
purposes are being amortized to the Limited  Partners'  capital  accounts as the
components of the timing differences which created the balance reverse.

Note D - Distributions

During the three months ended March 31, 2001, a  distribution  of  approximately
$534,000 to the  partners  (approximately  $533,000  to the limited  partners or
$2.94 per limited  partnership  unit)  consisting of funds from  operations  was
declared and paid. A distribution  of  approximately  $2,297,000  (approximately
$2,250,000 to the limited partners or $12.41 per limited  partnership  unit) was
accrued  during  December  1999  and paid in  January  2000.  This  distribution
consisted of cash from  operations of  approximately  $1,175,000  (approximately
$1,128,000 to the limited  partners or $6.22 per limited  partnership  unit) and
refinancing proceeds of approximately  $1,122,000 to the limited partners ($6.19
per limited partnership unit). No distributions were declared or paid during the
first quarter of 2000.

Note E - Segment Reporting

Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosure about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the
way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments
in annual  financial  statements  and  requires  that those  enterprises  report
selected  information about operating segments in interim financial reports.  It
also establishes  standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic  areas,  and  major  customers.  As  defined  in SFAS  No.  131,  the
Partnership has only one reportable  segment.  The General Partner believes that
segment-based disclosures will not result in a more meaningful presentation than
the consolidated financial statements as currently presented.

Note F - Legal Proceedings

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial  Group,  Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs  named as defendants,  among others,
the   Partnership,   its  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited  partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited  partnerships  (including  the  Partnership)  which are named as nominal
defendants,  challenging,  among other things,  the  acquisition of interests in
certain general partner entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc.  ("Insignia")
and entities which were, at one time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers
by the Insignia affiliates to acquire limited  partnership units;  management of
the  partnerships  by the  Insignia  affiliates;  and the Insignia  Merger.  The
plaintiffs  seek  monetary  damages and  equitable  relief,  including  judicial
dissolution of the  Partnership.  On June 25, 1998, the General  Partner filed a
motion seeking dismissal of the action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the
plaintiffs  filed an amended  complaint.  The General Partner filed demurrers to
the amended complaint which were heard February 1999.

Pending the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement  negotiations  commenced.  On
November 2, 1999,  the parties  executed and filed a Stipulation  of Settlement,
settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf of the Partnership and all
limited partners who owned units as of November 3, 1999. Preliminary approval of
the  settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  at which time
the Court set a final  approval  hearing for  December  10,  1999.  Prior to the
December  10,  1999  hearing,  the  Court  received  various  objections  to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case and an appeal was taken  from the order on  October  5,  2000.  On
December 4, 2000, the Court  appointed the law firm of Lieff Cabraser  Heimann &
Bernstein  LLP as new  lead  counsel  for  plaintiffs  and the  putative  class.
Plaintiffs  filed a third  amended  complaint on January 19,  2001.  On March 2,
2001,  the  General  Partner  and its  affiliates  filed a demurrer to the third
amended  complaint.  The demurrer is scheduled to be heard on May 14, 2001.  The
Court has also  scheduled  a hearing  on a motion  for class  certification  for
August 27, 2001.  Plaintiffs must file their motion for class  certification  no
later than June 15, 2001.  The General  Partner does not  anticipate  that costs
associated  with  this  case  will  be  material  to the  Partnership's  overall
operations.

The  Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding  litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The  matters  discussed  in this Form  10-QSB  contain  certain  forward-looking
statements  and  involve  risks and  uncertainties  (including  changing  market
conditions,   competitive  and  regulatory   matters,   etc.)  detailed  in  the
disclosures  contained  in this  Form  10-QSB  and the  other  filings  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission made by the  Partnership  from time to time.
The  discussion  of  the  Partnership's  business  and  results  of  operations,
including  forward-looking  statements pertaining to such matters, does not take
into  account  the  effects of any  changes to the  Partnership's  business  and
results of operation.  Accordingly,  actual results could differ materially from
those  projected in the  forward-looking  statements  as a result of a number of
factors, including those identified herein.

The Partnership's  investment property consists of one apartment complex, Colony
of Springdale Apartments, located in Springdale, Ohio. The average occupancy for
the  three  month  periods  ended  March  31,  2001 and  2000,  was 89% and 92%,
respectively.  The decrease in occupancy at The Colony of Springdale  Apartments
is  due  to  increased  competition  and  changing  economic  conditions  in its
respective local market.

Results of Operations

The  Partnership  realized  a net loss of  approximately  $85,000  for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to net loss of approximately $49,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2000. The increase in net loss is primarily due
to a decrease in total revenues combined with an increase in total expenses. The
decrease in total revenues  resulted from a decrease in rental income  partially
offset by an increase in other income.  Rental income decreased as a result of a
decrease in occupancy at the Colony of Springdale.  Other income  increased as a
result of increased late charges  collected.  Total expenses increased due to an
increase in general and administrative  expense,  partially offset by a decrease
in property  tax  expenses  and  interest  expense.  The increase in general and
administrative  expenses  is  due  to  the  special  management  fee  of  9%  on
distributions  from  operations  earned  during the three months ended March 31,
2001.  No such fee was earned  during the three  months  ended  March 31,  2000.
General and administrative expense also increased due to an increase in the cost
of services included in the management  reimbursements to the General Partner as
allowed  under  the  Partnership   Agreement.   Also  included  in  general  and
administrative  expenses at both March 31, 2001 and 2000,  are costs  associated
with the  quarterly and annual  communications  with  investors  and  regulatory
agencies  and the  annual  audit  required  by the  Partnership  Agreement.  The
decrease in property  tax expense is due to the timing of the receipt of the tax
bills which affected the recording of the  associated  accrual at both March 31,
2001 and 2000.  Interest expense decreased due to additional interest being paid
during the three months ended March 31,  2000,  related to the  refinance of the
Partnership's property during the fourth quarter of 1999.

As part of the ongoing  business plan of the  Partnership,  the General  Partner
monitors the rental market environment of its investment  property to assess the
feasibility of increasing rents,  maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and
protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the
General  Partner  attempts  to  protect  the  Partnership  from  the  burden  of
inflation-related  increases in expenses by increasing  rents and  maintaining a
high overall occupancy level. However, due to changing market conditions,  which
can  result in the use of rental  concessions  and rental  reductions  to offset
softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the General Partner will
be able to sustain such a plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At  March  31,  2001,  the  Partnership   had  cash  and  cash   equivalents  of
approximately  $254,000 as compared to approximately $590,000 at March 31, 2000.
For the three months ended March 31, 2001, cash and cash  equivalents  decreased
by approximately  $556,000 from the Partnership's  year ended December 31, 2000.
The decrease in cash and cash  equivalents is due to  approximately  $566,000 of
cash used in  financing  activities  and  approximately  $35,000 of cash used in
investing activities partially offset by approximately  $45,000 of cash provided
by  operating  activities.  Cash  used  in  financing  activities  consisted  of
distributions  to the  partners  and  principal  payments  made on the  mortgage
encumbering  the  Partnership's  property.  Cash  used in  investing  activities
consisted of property improvements and replacements. The Partnership invests its
working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.

The sufficiency of existing  liquid assets to meet future  liquidity and capital
expenditure   requirements   is  directly   related  to  the  level  of  capital
expenditures required at the property to adequately maintain the physical assets
and other operating  needs of the Registrant and to comply with Federal,  state,
and local legal and regulatory  requirements.  Capital  improvements planned for
the Partnership's property are discussed below.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2001,  the  Partnership  completed
approximately   $35,000  of  capital   improvements   at  the  property.   These
improvements  consisted primarily of floor covering  replacements and countertop
replacements.   These   improvements  were  funded  from  operating  cash  flow.
Approximately  $72,000 has been budgeted for capital  improvements  at Colony of
Springdale  for the  year  2001  consisting  primarily  of floor  coverings  and
countertops  replacements.  Additional  improvements  may be considered and will
depend on the physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves
and anticipated  cash flow generated by the property.  The capital  expenditures
will be incurred only if cash is available from  operations or from  Partnership
reserves.  To the extent that such budgeted capital  improvements are completed,
the Registrant's  distributable  cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at
least in the short term.

The Partnership's  current assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term
needs  (exclusive  of capital  improvements)  of the  Partnership.  The mortgage
indebtedness  of  approximately  $5,444,000  is  amortized  over 240  months and
matures  December 1, 2019. The General Partner will attempt to refinance  and/or
sell the property prior to the maturity date. If the property  cannot be sold or
refinanced for a sufficient  amount,  the Partnership  risks losing the property
through foreclosure.

During the three months ended March 31, 2001, a  distribution  of  approximately
$534,000 to the  partners  (approximately  $533,000  to the limited  partners or
$2.94 per limited  partnership  unit)  consisting of funds from  operations  was
declared and paid. A distribution  of  approximately  $2,297,000  (approximately
$2,250,000 to the limited partners or $12.41 per limited  partnership  unit) was
accrued  during  December  1999  and paid in  January  2000.  This  distribution
consisted of cash from  operations of  approximately  $1,175,000  (approximately
$1,128,000 to the limited  partners or $6.22 per limited  partnership  unit) and
refinancing proceeds of approximately  $1,122,000 to the limited partners ($6.19
per limited partnership unit). No distributions were declared or paid during the
first quarter of 2000.  Future cash  distributions  will depend on the levels of
net cash generated from  operations,  the  availability of cash reserves and the
timing of the debt maturity,  refinancing and/or property sale. The Registrant's
distribution  policy is reviewed on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance
that the  Partnership  will generate  sufficient  funds from  operations,  after
required  capital  expenditures,  to  permit  additional  distributions  to  its
partners during the remainder of 2001 or subsequent periods.

In addition to its  indirect  ownership of the general  partner  interest in the
Partnership,  AIMCO and its affiliates  currently own 88,125 limited partnership
units in the Partnership  representing 48.61% of the outstanding units. A number
of these  units were  acquired  pursuant  to tender  offers made by AIMCO or its
affiliates.  It is possible that AIMCO or its  affiliates  will make one or more
additional offers to acquire  additional  limited  partnership  interests in the
Partnership  for cash or in exchange for units in the operating  partnership  of
AIMCO either through private  purchases or tender offers.  Under the Partnership
Agreement,  unitholders  holding a majority  of the Units are  entitled  to take
action  with  respect to a variety  of  matters,  which  would  include  without
limitation, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting
to remove the General  Partner.  As a result of its  ownership  of 48.61% of the
outstanding units, AIMCO is in a position to significantly  influence all voting
decisions with respect to the Registrant. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in
all likelihood vote the Units it acquired in a manner  favorable to the interest
of the General Partner because of its affiliation with the General Partner.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial  Group,  Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs  named as defendants,  among others,
the   Partnership,   its  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited  partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited  partnerships  (including  the  Partnership)  which are named as nominal
defendants,  challenging,  among other things,  the  acquisition of interests in
certain general partner entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc.  ("Insignia")
and entities which were, at one time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers
by the Insignia affiliates to acquire limited  partnership units;  management of
the  partnerships  by the  Insignia  affiliates;  and the Insignia  Merger.  The
plaintiffs  seek  monetary  damages and  equitable  relief,  including  judicial
dissolution of the  Partnership.  On June 25, 1998, the General  Partner filed a
motion seeking dismissal of the action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the
plaintiffs  filed an amended  complaint.  The General Partner filed demurrers to
the amended complaint which were heard February 1999.

Pending the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement  negotiations  commenced.  On
November 2, 1999,  the parties  executed and filed a Stipulation  of Settlement,
settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf of the Partnership and all
limited partners who owned units as of November 3, 1999. Preliminary approval of
the  settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  at which time
the Court set a final  approval  hearing for  December  10,  1999.  Prior to the
December  10,  1999  hearing,  the  Court  received  various  objections  to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case and an appeal was taken  from the order on  October  5,  2000.  On
December 4, 2000, the Court  appointed the law firm of Lieff Cabraser  Heimann &
Bernstein  LLP as new  lead  counsel  for  plaintiffs  and the  putative  class.
Plaintiffs  filed a third  amended  complaint on January 19,  2001.  On March 2,
2001,  the  General  Partner  and its  affiliates  filed a demurrer to the third
amended  complaint.  The demurrer is scheduled to be heard on May 14, 2001.  The
Court has also  scheduled  a hearing  on a motion  for class  certification  for
August 27, 2001.  Plaintiffs must file their motion for class  certification  no
later than June 15, 2001.  The General  Partner does not  anticipate  that costs
associated  with  this  case  will  be  material  to the  Partnership's  overall
operations.
