NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



General



The information contained in the following notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements is condensed from that which would appear in the audited annual consolidated financial statements; accordingly, the consolidated financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto contained in the annual report for the year ended December 31, 2006 prepared by Real Estate Associates Limited VI (the "Partnership" or "Registrant"). Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.



In the opinion of the Partnerships management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Partnership at March 31, 2007 and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.



The general partners collectively have a one percent interest in profits and losses of the Partnership. The limited partners have the remaining 99 percent interest which is allocated in proportion to their respective individual investments. The general partners of the Partnership are National Partnership Investments Corp. ("NAPICO" or the "Corporate General Partner") and National Partnership Investment Associates ("NAPIA" or the "Non-Corporate General Partner").  The Corporate General Partner is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company (AIMCO), a publicly traded real estate investment trust.



Basis of Presentation



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.



Principles of Consolidation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Real Estate Associates Limited VI and its majority-owned general partnership.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Losses in excess of the minority interest in equity that would otherwise be attributed to the minority interest are being allocated to the Partnership.



Method of Accounting for Investments in Local Limited Partnerships



The investments in unconsolidated local limited partnerships (the Local Limited Partnerships) are accounted for on the equity method. Acquisition, selection fees and other costs related to the acquisition of the Local Limited Partnerships have been capitalized as part of the investment account and are being amortized by the straight line method over the estimated lives of the underlying assets, which is generally 30 years.



Net Loss Per Limited Partnership Interest



Net loss per limited partnership interest was computed by dividing the limited partners share of net loss by the number of limited partnership interests outstanding at the beginning of the year. The number of limited partnership interests was 16,714 and 16,740 as of January 1, 2007 and 2006, respectively.



FASB Interpretation No. 46



As of December 31, 2004, the Partnership adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (or FIN 46) and applied its requirements to all Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership held a variable interest.  FIN 46 addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entitys activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entitys activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  FIN 46 requires a VIE to be consolidated in the financial statements of the entity that is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE.



The Partnership holds variable interests in 17 VIEs for which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary.  The 17 VIEs consist of Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership acquired an interest prior to the adoption of FIN 46 that are directly engaged in the ownership and management of 17 apartment properties with a total of 858 units.  The Partnership is involved with those VIEs as a non-controlling limited partner equity holder.  The Partnerships maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the unconsolidated VIEs is limited to the Partnerships recorded investments in and receivables from these VIEs, which was approximately $364,000 at March 31, 2007.  The Partnership may be subject to additional losses to the extent of any financial support that the Partnership voluntarily provides in the future.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS No. 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the information used in developing fair value estimates. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data, such as the reporting entitys own data. SFAS No. 157 requires fair value measurements to be disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnershipdoes not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material effect on the Partnerships consolidated financial statements.



In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership has not yet determined whether it will elect the fair value option for any of its financial instruments.



NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS



As of March 31, 2007, the Partnership holds limited partnership interests in 14 Local Limited Partnerships. In addition, the Partnership holds a majority-owned general partner interest in Real Estate Associates III (REA III) which, in turn, holds limited partnership interests in three additional Local Limited Partnerships. In total, therefore, the Partnership holds interests, either directly or indirectly through REA III, in 17 Local Limited Partnerships which owned, as of March 31, 2007, residential low income rental projects consisting of 858 apartment units. Certain of the Local Limited Partnerships are encumbered by mortgage notes payable to or insured by agencies of the federal or local government.



The Partnership, as a limited partner, does not have a contractual relationship with the Local Limited Partnerships or exercise control over the activities and operations, including refinancing or selling decisions, of the Local Limited Partnerships that would require or allow for consolidation. Accordingly, the Partnership accounts for its investments in the Local Limited Partnerships using the equity method. The Partnership is allocated profits and losses of the Local Limited Partnerships based upon its respective ownership percentages between 90% and 99%. The Partnership is also entitled to 99.9% of the profits and losses of REA III. REA III is entitled to a 99% interest in each of the Local Limited Partnerships in which it has invested. Distributions of surplus cash from operations from most of the Local Limited Partnerships are restricted by the Local Limited Partnerships Regulatory Agreements with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These restrictions limit the distribution to a portion, generally less than 10% of the initial invested capital. The excess surplus cash is deposited into a residual receipts reserve, of which the ultimate realization by the Partnership is uncertain as HUD frequently retains it upon sale or dissolution of the Local Limited Partnership. The Partnership is allocated profits and losses and receives distributions from refinancings and sales in accordance with the Local Limited Partnerships partnership agreements. These agreements usually limit the Partnerships distributions to an amount substantially less than its ownership percentage in the Local Limited Partnership.



The individual investments are carried at cost plus the Partnerships share of the Local Limited Partnerships profits less the Partnerships share of the Local Limited Partnerships losses, distributions and impairment charges. The Partnership is not legally liable for the obligations of the Local Limited Partnerships and is not otherwise committed to provide additional support to them. Therefore, it does not recognize losses once its investment in each of the Local Limited Partnerships reaches zero. Distributions from the Local Limited Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance until the investment balance is reduced to zero. When the investment balance has been reduced to zero, subsequent distributions received are recognized as income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.



For those investments where the Partnership has determined that the carrying value of its investments approximates the estimated fair value of those investments, the Partnerships policy is to recognize equity in income of the Local Limited Partnerships only to the extent of distributions received and amortization of acquisition costs from those Local Limited Partnerships.  Therefore, the Partnership limits its recognition of equity earnings to the amount it expects to ultimately realize.



As of March 31, 2007, the investment balance in 15 of the 17 Local Limited Partnerships had been reduced to zero. The Partnership still has an investment balance in Cassady Village Apartments, Ltd. (Cassady Village) and Park Place Limited Partnership.



At times, advances are made to the Local Limited Partnerships. Advances made by the Partnership to the individual Local Limited Partnerships are considered part of the Partnerships investment in the Local Limited Partnership. Advances made to Local Limited Partnerships for which the investment has been reduced to zero are charged to expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, approximately $30,000 was advanced to the Local Limited Partnerships and was recognized as expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.  No such advances were made during the three months ended March 31, 2006.



On July 25, 2006, the Partnership and two individuals, who are both affiliated with the general partner of Parkesedge Associates, entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to provide for the assignment of the Partnerships limited partnership interest and extinguishment of the remaining capital contribution due to Parkesedge Associates by the Partnership. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Partnership received approximately $390,000 of cash and wrote off the remaining capital contribution payable to Parkesedge Associates of approximately $122,000. The Partnership recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $512,000 as the investment balance in the Local Limited Partnership had been reduced to zero.



During 2006, the Local Operating General Partner of one of the Local Limited Partnerships, Cady Brook Apartments, entered into a purchase and sale contract with a third party to sell the investment property for a sales price of approximately $970,000. The sale is subject to due diligence, and there can be no certainty regarding the timing of such sale or if a sale will even occur.  The Local Operating General Partner of Cady Brook Apartments and the purchaser are currently negotiating items identified during the due diligence process, including potential adjustments to the sales price.  The Corporate General Partner currently estimates the sale, if it occurs, will result in proceeds to the Partnership, however the amount of proceeds is not determinable at this time.  The Partnership has no remaining investment balance in Cady Brook Apartments at March 31, 2007.



The Partnership has a 98.9% limited partnership interest in a Local Limited Partnership, SOL 413 Limited Dividend Partnership (SOL 413). On May 1, 2007, SOL 413 entered into a purchase and sale contract with a third party, for the sale of its sole investment property, located in San Juan, Puerto Rico, which consists of 12 units, for a sales price of $731,850.  The sale is expected to close in July 2007. After payment of closing costs, repayment of the mortgage encumbering SOL 413s investment property, and payment of other liabilities associated with SOL 413s investment property, including advances from the Partnership, it is anticipated, if the sale occurs, that total proceeds to the Partnership will be approximately $295,000.  The Partnership had no investment balance remaining in SOL 413 at March 31, 2007 and accordingly, the advances to SOL 413 of approximately $128,000 are fully reserved.



The following is a summary of the investments in Local Limited Partnerships for the three months ended March 31, 2007 (in thousands):



|                                               |

The following are unaudited combined estimated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 of Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested (in thousands):

|Loss from continuing operations        | $(9)               | $(19)     



The combined results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 have been restated to exclude the operations of Parkesedge Associates as the Partnership assigned its interest in 2006 and to remove Kentucky Manor due to no financial information being available for 2007.



In addition to being the Corporate General Partner of the Partnership, NAPICO, or one of its affiliates, is the general partner for eight Local Limited Partnerships and was the property management agent for two of the Local Limited Partnerships for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The Local Limited Partnerships paid affiliates of NAPICO property management fees in the amount of 5 percent of their gross revenues. The amounts paid were approximately $8,000 for the three months ended 2006. During 2006, the affiliate ceased providing property management services for the Local Limited Partnerships.



The current policy of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has determined not to renew the Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) Contracts on a long term basis on the existing terms.  In connection with renewals of the HAP Contracts under such current law and policy, the amount of rental assistance payments under renewed HAP Contracts will be based on market rentals instead of above market rentals, which may not be the case under existing HAP Contracts.  The payments under the renewed HAP Contracts may not be in an amount that would provide sufficient cash flow to permit owners of properties subject to HAP Contracts to meet the debt service requirements of existing loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration of HUD (FHA) unless such mortgage loans are restructured. In order to address the reduction in payments under HAP Contracts as a result of current policy, the Multi-family Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 (MAHRAA) provides for the restructuring of mortgage loans insured by the FHA with respect to properties subject to the Section 8 program. Under MAHRAA, an FHA-insured mortgage loan can be restructured into a first mortgage loan which will be amortized on a current basis and a low interest rate second mortgage loan payable to FHA which will only be payable on maturity of the first mortgage loan. This restructuring results in a reduction in annual debt service payable by the owner of the FHA-insured mortgage loan and is expected to result in an insurance payment from FHA to the holder of the FHA-insured loan due to the reduction in the principal amount. MAHRAA also phases out project-based subsidies on selected properties serving families not located in rental markets with limited supply, converting such subsidies to a tenant-based subsidy.



When the HAP Contracts are subject to renewal, there can be no assurance that the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has an investment will be permitted to restructure its mortgage indebtedness under MAHRAA. In addition, the economic impact on the Partnership of the combination of the reduced payments under the HAP Contracts and the restructuring of the existing FHA-insured mortgage loans under MAHRAA is uncertain.



NOTE 3 - NOTES PAYABLE AND AMOUNTS DUE FOR PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS



The Partnership is obligated on non-recourse notes payable of $690,000 which bear interest at 9.5 percent per annum and have principal maturities ranging from December 1999 to December 2012. The notes and related interest are payable from cash flow generated from operations of the related rental properties as defined in the notes. These obligations are collateralized by the Partnerships investments in the Local Limited Partnerships. Unpaid interest is due at maturity of the notes. One note payable and related accrued interest aggregating approximately $1,649,000, relating to Cassady Village became payable prior to March 31, 2007 and is currently in default. During 2005, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the non-recourse note holder for Cassady Village to permit them to purchase a series of projects including the properties owned by the Local Partnerships Cassady Village and Marshall Plaza I & II Apartments.  Pending the decision to purchase one of the above properties and enter into a purchase agreement, the note holder agreed to forebear taking any action under the note for such period.  The Partnerships investment balance in Cassady Village at March 31, 2007 was approximately $80,000.  The Partnerships investment balance in Marshall Plaza I & II at March 31, 2007 was zero.



One of the Partnerships investments involved a purchase of partnership interests from partners who subsequently withdrew from the partnership. The purchase of this interest provides for an additional cash payment of approximately $8,000 based upon specific events as outlined in the purchase agreement. Such amount has been recorded as a liability and has been included in notes payable and amounts due for Partnership interests on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.



NOTE 4 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES



Under the terms of the Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership, the Partnership is obligated to NAPICO for an annual management fee equal to 0.4 percent of the original invested assets of the Local Limited Partnerships at the beginning of the year.  Invested assets are defined as the costs of acquiring project interests, including the proportionate amount of the mortgage loans related to the Partnership's interests in the capital accounts of the respective Local Limited Partnerships. The fee was approximately $27,000 and $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.



In addition to being the Corporate General Partner of the Partnership, NAPICO, or one of its affiliates, is the general partner for eight Local Limited Partnerships and was the property management agent for two of the Local Limited Partnerships for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The Local Limited Partnerships paid affiliates of NAPICO property management fees in the amount of 5 percent of their gross revenues. The amounts paid were approximately $8,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. During 2006 the affiliate ceased providing property management services for any of the Local Limited  Partnerships.



NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES



The Corporate General Partner is involved in various lawsuits arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and the Corporate General Partner, the claims will not result in any material liability to the Partnership.







ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION



The matters discussed in this report contain certain forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding future financial performance and the effect of government regulations. Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a variety of risks and factors including, without limitation: national and local economic conditions; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Registrant and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment in which the Registrant operates; financing risks, including the risk that cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; real estate risks; including variations of real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for tenants in such markets; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting and defending claims and any adverse outcomes, and possible environmental liabilities. Readers should carefully review the Registrants financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the documents the Registrant files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.



The Corporate General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory compliance. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 mandates or suggests additional compliance measures with regard to governance, disclosure, audit and other areas. In light of these changes, the Partnership expects that it will incur higher expenses related to compliance.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Partnership's primary sources of funds include interest income earned from investing available cash and distributions from Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested. It is not expected that any of the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested will generate cash flow sufficient to provide for distributions to the Partnership's limited partners in any material amount. No distributions to partners were made during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.



Distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships are recognized as a reduction of the investment balance until the investment balance has been reduced to zero. Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income.  No distributions were received during the three months ended March 31, 2007. The Partnership received approximately $2,000 in distributions from a Local Limited Partnership during the three months ended March 31, 2006.



As of March 31, 2007 and 2006, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,989,000 and $1,790,000, respectively. All of this cash is on deposit primarily with a financial institution, earning interest at market rates. This resulted in the Partnership earning approximately $26,000 and $19,000 in interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The amount of interest income varies with market rates available on deposits and with the amount of funds available for investment. Cash equivalents can be converted to cash to meet obligations of the Partnership as they arise. The Partnership intends to continue investing available funds in this manner.



The Partnership is obligated on non-recourse notes payable of $690,000 which bear interest at 9.5 percent per annum and have principal maturities ranging from December 1999 to December 2012. The notes and related interest are payable from cash flow generated from operations of the related rental properties as defined in the notes. These obligations are collateralized by the Partnerships investments in the Local Limited Partnerships. Unpaid interest is due at maturity of the notes. One note payable and related accrued interest aggregating approximately $1,649,000, relating to Cassady Village Apartments, Ltd (Cassady Village), became payable prior to March 31, 2007 and is currently in default. During 2005, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the non-recourse note holder for Cassady Village to permit them to purchase a series of projects including the properties owned by the Local Partnerships Cassady Village and Marshall Plaza I & II Apartments.  Pending the decision to purchase one of the above properties and enter into a purchase agreement, the note holder agreed to forebear taking any action under the note for such period.  The Partnerships investment balance in Cassady Village at March 31, 2007 was approximately $80,000.  The Partnerships investment balance in Marshall Plaza I & II at March 31, 2007 was zero.



Results of Operations



At March 31, 2007, the Partnership had investments in 14 Local Limited Partnerships and a general partner interest in REA III which, in turn, holds limited partnership interests in three additional Local Limited Partnerships, all of which own housing projects, most of which were substantially rented. The Partnership, as a limited partner, does not have a contractual relationship with the Local Limited Partnerships or exercise control over the activities and operations, including refinancing or selling decisions, of the Local Limited Partnerships that would require or allow for consolidation.  Accordingly, the Partnership accounts for its investment in the Local Limited Partnerships using the equity method. Thus the individual investments are carried at cost plus the Partnerships share of the Local Limited Partnerships profits less the Partnerships share of the Local Limited Partnerships losses, distributions and any impairment charges. However, since the Partnership is not legally liable for the obligations of the Local Limited Partnerships, or is not otherwise committed to provide additional support to them, it does not recognize losses once its investment in each of the Local Limited Partnerships reaches zero.  Distributions from the Local Limited Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance until the investment balance is reduced to zero.  Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income in the accompanying statements of operations.  For those investments where the Partnership has determined that the carrying value of its investments approximates the estimated fair value of those investments, the Partnerships policy is to recognize equity in income of the Local Limited Partnerships only to the extent of distributions received and amortization of acquisition costs from those Local Limited Partnerships.



The investments in all but two of the Local Limited Partnerships have been reduced to zero as of March 31, 2007. The Partnership still has an investment balance in Cassady Village and Park Place Limited Partnerships.



The Partnership recognized equity in loss and amortization of acquisition costs of Local Limited Partnerships of less than $1,000 and approximately $5,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.



A recurring partnership expense is the annual management fee. The fee is payable to the Corporate General Partner of the Partnership and is calculated at 0.4 percent of the Partnership's original remaining invested assets at the beginning of the year. The management fee is paid to the Corporate General Partner for its continuing management of the Partnership affairs. The fee is payable beginning with the month following the Partnership's initial investment in a Local Limited Partnership. Management fees were approximately $27,000 and $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease in management fees is due to the loss of investment in one Local Limited Partnership during 2006.



Operating expenses, other than management fees, consist of legal and accounting fees for services rendered to the Partnership and general and administrative expenses. Legal and accounting fees were approximately $15,000 and $17,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.



General and administrative expenses were approximately $10,000 and $9,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.



The Partnership incurs expense for certain New Jersey state tax returns.  For each of the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the expense was approximately $22,000.



Interest expense on non-recourse notes payable was approximately $16,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.



At times, advances are made to the Local Limited Partnerships. Advances made by the Partnership to the individual Local Limited Partnerships are considered part of the Partnerships investment in the Local Limited Partnership. Advances made to Local Limited Partnerships for which the investment has been reduced to zero are charged to expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, approximately $30,000 was advanced to the Local Limited Partnerships and was recognized as expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations included in Item 1. Financial Statements.  No such advances were made during the three months ended March 31, 2006.



The Partnership, as a limited partner in the Local Limited Partnerships in which it has invested, is subject to the risks incident to the management and ownership of improved real estate.  The Partnership investments are also subject to adverse general economic conditions, and, accordingly, the status of the national legislation which could increase vacancy levels, rental payment defaults, and operating expenses, which in turn could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the projects.



The current policy of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has determined not to renew the Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) Contracts on a long term basis on the existing terms.  In connection with renewals of the HAP Contracts under current law and policy, the amount of rental assistance payments under renewed HAP Contracts will be based on market rentals instead of above market rentals, which may be the case under existing HAP Contracts.  The payments under the renewed HAP Contracts may not be in an amount that would provide sufficient cash flow to permit owners of properties subject to HAP Contracts to meet the debt service requirements of existing loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration of HUD (FHA) unless such mortgage loans are restructured.  In order to address the reduction in payments under HAP Contracts as a result of current policy, the Multi-family Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 (MAHRAA) provides for the restructuring of mortgage loans insured by the FHA with respect to properties subject to the Section 8 program. Under MAHRAA, an FHA-insured mortgage loan can be restructured into a first mortgage loan which will be amortized on a current basis and a low interest rate second mortgage loan payable to FHA which will only be payable on maturity of the first mortgage loan. This restructuring results in a reduction in annual debt service payable by the owner of the FHA-insured mortgage loan and is expected to result in an insurance payment from FHA to the holder of the FHA-insured loan due to the reduction in the principal amount. MAHRAA also phases out project-based subsidies on selected properties serving families not located in rental markets with limited supply, converting such subsidies to a tenant-based subsidy.



When the HAP Contracts are subject to renewal, there can be no assurance that the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has an investment will be permitted to restructure its mortgage indebtedness under MAHRAA.  In addition, the economic impact on the Partnership of the combination of the reduced payments under the HAP Contracts and the restructuring of the existing FHA-insured mortgage loans under MAHRAA is uncertain.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



The Partnership owns limited partnership interests in unconsolidated Local Limited Partnerships, in which the Partnerships ownership percentage ranges from 90% to 99%.  However, based on the provisions of the relevant partnership agreements, the Partnership, as a limited partner, does not have control or a contractual relationship with the Local Limited Partnerships that would require or allow for consolidation under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (see Note 1  Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements).  There are no lines of credit, side agreements or any other derivative financial instruments between the Local Limited Partnerships and the Partnership.  Accordingly the Partnerships maximum risk of loss related to these unconsolidated Local Limited Partnerships is limited to the recorded investments in and receivables from the Local Limited Partnerships.  See Note 2  Investments In and Advances to Local Limited Partnerships of the financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements for additional information about the Partnerships investments in unconsolidated Local Limited Partnerships.



Other



In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partnership interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 878.5 limited partnership units (the "Units") (or 1,757 limited partnership interests) in the Partnership representing 10.51% of the outstanding Units at March 31, 2007. A Unit consists of two limited partnership interests. 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 acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., 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 that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Corporate General Partner. Although the Corporate General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the Corporate General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the Corporate General Partner, as corporate general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the Corporate General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.



FASB Interpretation No. 46



As of December 31, 2004, the Partnership adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (or FIN 46) and applied its requirements to all Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership held a variable interest.  FIN 46 addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entitys activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entitys activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  FIN 46 requires a VIE to be consolidated in the financial statements of the entity that is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE.



The Partnership holds variable interests in 17 VIEs for which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary.  The 17 VIEs consist of Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership acquired an interest prior to the adoption of FIN 46 that are directly engaged in the ownership and management of 17 apartment properties with a total of 858 units.  The Partnership is involved with those VIEs as a non-controlling limited partner equity holder.  The Partnerships maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the unconsolidated VIEs is limited to the Partnerships recorded investments in and receivables from these VIEs, which was approximately $364,000 at March 31, 2007.  The Partnership may be subject to additional losses to the extent of any financial support that the Partnership voluntarily provides in the future.



Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions. The Partnership believes that of its critical accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.



Method of Accounting for Investments in Local Limited Partnerships



The Partnership, as a limited partner, does not have a contractual relationship with the Local Limited Partnerships or exercise control over the activities and operations, including refinancing or selling decisions, of the Local Limited Partnerships that would require or allow for consolidation. Accordingly, the Partnership accounts for its investments in the Local Limited Partnerships using the equity method. The Partnership is allocated profits and losses of the Local Limited Partnerships based upon its respective ownership percentages between 90% and 99%. The Partnership is also entitled to 99.9% of the profits and losses of REA III. REA III is entitled to a 99% interest in each of the Local Limited Partnerships in which it has invested. Distributions of surplus cash from operations from most of the Local Limited Partnerships are restricted by the Local Limited Partnerships Regulatory Agreements with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These restrictions limit the distribution to a portion, generally less than 10%, of the initial invested capital. The excess surplus cash is deposited into a residual receipts reserve, of which the ultimate realization by the Partnership is uncertain as HUD frequently retains it upon sale or dissolution of the Local Limited Partnership. The Partnership is allocated profits and losses and receives distributions from refinancings and sales in accordance with the Local Limited Partnerships partnership agreements. These agreements usually limit the Partnerships distributions to an amount substantially less than its ownership percentage in the Local Limited Partnership.



The individual investments are carried at cost plus the Partnerships share of the Local Limited Partnerships profits less the Partnerships share of the Local Limited Partnerships losses, distributions and impairment charges. The Partnership is not legally liable for the obligations of the Local Limited Partnerships and is not otherwise committed to provide additional support to them. Therefore, it does not recognize losses once its investment in each of the Local Limited Partnerships reaches zero.  Distributions from the Local Limited Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance until the investment balance is reduced to zero. When the investment balance has been reduced to zero, subsequent distributions received are recognized as income in the accompanying statements of operations.



For those investments where the Partnership has determined that the carrying value of its investments approximates the estimated fair value of those investments, the Partnerships policy is to recognize equity in income of the Local Limited Partnerships only to the extent of distributions received and amortization of acquisition costs from those Local Limited Partnerships.  Therefore, the Partnership limits its recognition of equity earnings to the amount it expects to ultimately realize.



ITEM 3.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



(a)

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Partnerships management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Corporate 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 such term is 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 Corporate 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.



(b)

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting.















PART II - OTHER INFORMATION





ITEM 5.

OTHER INFORMATION



Real Estate Associates Limited VI, a California limited partnership (the Partnership), has a 98.9% limited partnership interest in SOL 413 Limited Dividend Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership (SOL 413). On May 1, 2007, SOL 413 entered into a purchase and sale contract with a third party, TBAC Corporation, a Puerto Rico corporation for the sale of its sole investment property, located in San Juan, Puerto Rico, which consists of 12 units, for a sales price of $731,850.  The sale is expected to close in July 2007. After payment of closing costs, repayment of the mortgage encumbering SOL 413s investment property, and payment of other liabilities associated with SOL 413s investment property, including advances to the Partnership, it is anticipated, if the sale occurs, that total proceeds to the Partnership will be approximately $295,000.  The Partnership had no investment balance remaining in SOL 413 at March 31, 2007.
