Certain
statements contained in this discussion or elsewhere in this report may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Words and phrases such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”,
“plans”, “believes”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “designed to achieve”, variations
of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical
in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in
the future – including statements relating to rent and occupancy growth, general conditions in the geographic areas
where we operate – are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve
certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.

Although
we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance
that our expectations will be attained and therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed
or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that may affect outcomes and results are beyond our ability
to control.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

DSI Realty Income Fund VII
(the "Partnership") is a publicly-held limited partnership organized under the California Uniform Limited Partnership
Act pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership (hereinafter referred to as "Agreement") dated August
1, 1983. The General Partners are DSI Properties, Inc., a California corporation, and RJC Capital Management, LLC and JWC Capital
Management, LLC.

DSI Properties, Inc. is
an affiliate of Diversified Securities, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of DSI Financial, Inc. The General Partners provide similar
services to other partnerships. Through its public offering of Limited Partnership Units, Registrant sold twenty-four thousand
(24,000) units of limited partnership interests aggregating Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000). 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.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Not required.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF

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, 2013,
there were approximately 846 holders of Limited Partnership Interests.

Distributions

Average cash distributions
of $6.31 per Limited Partnership Unit were declared and paid each quarter for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $6.28 per Limited
Partnership Unit were declared and paid each quarter for the year ended December 31, 2012. It is the Partnership’s expectation
that distributions will continue to be paid in the future.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL
DATA

Not Required.

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

Overview

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.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue recognition - Rental
income, which is generally earned pursuant to month-to-month leases for storage space, as well as late charges and administrative
fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period. Ancillary revenues and
interest and other income are recognized when earned.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2013 COMPARED TO 2012

Total revenues increased from
$1,904,569 in 2012 to $1,989,721 in 2013, while total expenses increased from $1,328,888 to $1,443,361. As a result, net income
from continuing operations decreased from $575,681 to $546,360. Rental revenues increased primarily as a result of increased rental
rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership’s mini-storage facilitiesaveraged 74.8% for the year 2013 as compared
to 67.1% for 2012. Operating expenses increased $94,516 (10.9%) primarily due to increases inrepair
and maintenance, advertising, ground maintenance and fire and liability insurance expenses; partially offset by a decrease in salary
and wages expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $23,221 (8.1%) primarily as a result of increases in legal and
professional expenses. The General Partners’ incentive management fee increased slightly, which is based on cash available
for distribution.

Operating expenses consist mainly of expenses such as promotional
advertising, yellow pages and other forms of advertising, fire and liability insurance, workers compensation insurance, repairs
and maintenance, real estate taxes, salaries and wages and their related expenses. General and administrative expenses consist
mainly of expenses such as legal and professional, office supplies, accounting services and computer expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities
decreased $129,121 (18.9%) to $554,867 in 2013 compared to $583,988 2012primarily due a reduced decline in customer deposits
and other liabilities from prior year.

Cash used in investing activities, consists of acquisition of property
or capital improvements to the Partnership's mini storage facilities. There were no significant investing activities in 2013 and
2012. 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 2013 and 2012.

Current economic conditions have shown improvement but the strength of the recovery continues to vary by property and by region.
As the economic recovery continues to stabilize and demonstrate consistency, we are optimistic that positive momentum will continue
to build throughout 2013. Lingering high unemployment rates are still affecting people's discretionary income and their ability
to afford storage.



Historically low interest rates have made housing more affordable
and have driven a strong recovery in this sector of the real estate market. Although this fact may be having a negative impact
on storage occupancy rates in the short term, we expect the growing economy to be a positive offset as incomes rebound steadily.



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.

PROCEDURES

Disclosure 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) 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 Annual
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) 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.

Internal Controls Over Financial
Reporting

The Partnership's management
assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. 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, 2013, 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 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 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 15(1)

2013 ANNUAL REPORT TO
LIMITED PARTNERS OF

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND
VII

Financial Statements for
its fiscal year ended December 31, 2013



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Partners of DSI Realty
Income Fund VII:

We have audited the accompanying
balance sheets of DSI Realty Income Fund VII, a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") as of December 31,
2013 and 2012 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, 2013. 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 VII at
December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended
December 31, 2013, 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.

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

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2013

1. GENERAL

DSI Realty Income Fund VII,
a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), has three general partners (DSI Properties, Inc., RJC Capital Management,
LLC and JWC Capital Management, LLC and limited partners owning 24,000 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 August 1, 1983, under the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose of acquiring and operating real
estate.

DSI Properties, Inc. is
an affiliate of Diversified Securities, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of DSI Financial, Inc. The General Partners provide similar
services to other partnerships. Through its public offering of Limited Partnership Units, Registrant sold twenty-four thousand
(24,000) units of limited partnership interests aggregating Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000). 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 owns mini-storage
facilities located in Chico, Fairfield, La Verne and Riverside, California; and Littleton, Colorado. 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 - The Partnership classifies
its short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. As of December 31,
2013 the Partnership had no cash equivalents.



Uncollected Rental Revenue - The
Partnership estimates the collectability of uncollected rental revenue on an ongoing basis by reviewing past-due monthly rents
and assessing the current creditworthiness of each tenant.  Allowances are provided based on historical write-offs. Allowances
on uncollected rental revenue as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $13,954 and$13,359,
respectively.

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.



Page
F-6







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. For the year ended December 31,
2011 the Partnership changed the accounting method for federal income tax purposes from cash to accrual basis thereby eliminating
the difference in the basis of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities between tax and the GAAP basis financial statements.
The change in tax accounting method resulted in an adjustment to the limited partners’ capital account for tax purposes for
the year ended December 31, 2011 only in order to coincide with the accounting method used to prepare the Partnership’s GAAP
basis financial statements. Accordingly there were no differences for the year ended December 31, 2013.



Revenues - Rental income, which is generally earned pursuant to
month-to-month leases for storage space, as well as late charges and administrative fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional
discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period. Ancillary revenues and interest and other income are recognized when
earned.

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, 2013 and 2012 were $150,880 and $125,583 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 2013 or 2012.

Fair Value of Financial
Instruments - ASC 825-10 (formerly SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”) defines financial
instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Partnership. 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.

Concentrations of Credit
Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash
and cash equivalents and uncollected rent revenue. The Partnership places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality
institutions. Accounts at banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. At
December 31, 2013, the Partnership had $4,681 in excess of insured limits. The Partnership performs ongoing evaluations
of these institutions to limit its concentration of risk exposure. Management believes this risk is not significant due to the
financial strength of the financial institutions utilized by the Partnership.

Comprehensive Income - The
Partnership has adopted Accounting Standards Update 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive
Income. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2011 comprehensive income equaled net income, as the Partnership had no other
comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, accumulated other comprehensive income was $0.

recent accounting pronouncements issued to date of the issuance of these financial statements, and does not believe any of these
