3.   NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT

Net income per limited partnership unit is calculated by dividing the
net income allocated to the limited partners by the number of limited
partnership units outstanding during the period.

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
     losses 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.


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations.

We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited consolidated financial
statements  for  the  period  ended  March 31, 2005.  The  following  is
Management's  discussion  and  analysis  of  the  Partnership's  financial
condition  and  results  of  its  operations.

For the three month  periods ended  March 31, 2005 and 2004, total  revenues
decreased 5.7% from $704,032 to $663,961, total expenses increased 10.6% from
$443,710 to $490,709, other income decreased from $130 to $129 and minority
interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased 11.9% from $31,941
to $28,151.  As a result, net income decreased 36.4% from $228,511 to $145,230
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, as  compared to the   same
period in 2004.  The decrease in revenue can be attributed to a decrease in
rental in income due to lower occupancy  and unit  rental rates.  Occupancy
levels for the Partnership's six mini-storage facilities averaged 71.9% for
the three month period ended March 31, 2005 as compared to 74.7% for the same
period in 2004.  The  Partnership is  continuing its  marketing  efforts to
attract and keep new tenants in its various mini-storage facilities. Operating
expenses increased approximately $39,000 (10.5%) primarily as a  result  of
increases in advertising, maintenance and repair, real estate tax and truck
insurance expenses.  General and administrative expenses increased approxi-
mately $8,000 (11.3%) primarily as a result of an increase in legal and
professional and equipment  and computer lease expenses partially offset by
a decrease in incentive management fees.

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's  resources appear to be adequate to meet
its needs.  The  General  Partners  anticipate  distributions to the Limited
Partners to  remain at the  current  level  for  the  foreseeable  future.

Item 3.   Quantative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
          NONE

Item 4.   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 evaluation
was performed by the Partnership's Controller with assistance of the Partner-
ship's President and Chief Executive Officer.  These disclosure controls and
procedures are designed that the information required to be disclosed by the
Partnership in its periodic reports filed with 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 dis-
closure controls and procedures were effective.  There have been no signif-
icant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect the  internal contorls subsequent to the date of
their evaluation.

                          CERTIFICATIONS

    I, Robert J. Conway, certify that:

    1.  I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of DSI Realty Income
    Fund IX;

    2.  Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue
    statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary
    to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which
    such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period cover-
    ed by this quarterly report.

    3.  Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
    information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
    material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash
    flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this
    quarterly report;

    4.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
    establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
    in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15e and 15d-15e) for the registrant and have:

         a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
         disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our super-
         vision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant,
         including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
         within those entities, particularly during the period in which this
         annual report is being prepared;

         b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
         and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
         effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end
         of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

         c)  disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
         control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's
         most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in
         the case of our annual report) that has materially affected, or is
         reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal
         control over financial reporting; and

    5.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based
    on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting,
    to the registrant's auditors:

         a)  all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design
         or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
         reasonably likely to affect the registrant's ability to record, pro-
         cess, summarize and report financial information; and

         b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
         other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's in-
         ternal controls over financial reporting.
