                QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS
                     OF DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VI


DEAR LIMITED PARTNERS:

We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited financial statements
for the period ended June 30, 2003. 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  June 30, 2003, and 2002, total  expenses
increased 3.3% from $693,646 to $716,697 and total expenses decreased 10.5%
from $476,466 to $426,448 and other income decreased from $359 to $179.  As
a result, net income increased 33.5% from $217,539 for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2002, to $290,428 for the same period in 2003.  The revenue
increase can be attributed to an increase in rental income as a result of
higher occupancy and unit rental rates.  Occupancy levels for the Partner-
ship's six mini-storage facilities averaged 86.2% for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2003, compared to 84.4% for the same period in 2002.  The
Partnership is continuing its marketing efforts to attract and keep new
tenants in its various mini-storage facilities.  Operating expenses decreased
approximately $35,800 (9.5%) primarily due to decreases in depreciation,
maintenance and repair and workers compensation insurance expenses, partially
offset by increases in real estate tax, salaries and wages and power and
sweeping expenses.  Depreciation decreased as the Partnership properties be-
came fully depreciated during the current period.  General and administrative
expenses decreased approximately $14,200 (14.5%) as a result of decreases in
legal and professional, equipment and computer lease expense.

For the six-month  periods ended  June 30, 2003, and  2002,  total revenues
increased 0.6% from $1,429,008 to $1,437,808, total expenses decreased 6.8%
from $917,641 to $855,037 and other income decreased from $696 to $398.  As
a result, net income increased 13.9% from $512,063 for the six months ended
June 30, 2002, to $583,169 for the same period in 2003.  The revenue increase
can be attributed to an increase in rental revenue as a result of higher unit
rental rates.  Operating expenses decreased approximately $50,700 (6.8%)
primarily due to decreases in depreciation, maintenance and repair, office
supplies and expense and workers compensation insurance expenses, partially
offset by increases in telephone, real estate tax, salaries and wages and
power and sweeping expenses.  General and administrative expenses decreased
approximately $11,900 (6.9%) primarily as a result of decreases in legal and
professional and equipment and computer lease expenses and state tax payments.

On April 5, 2002, the General Partners received a copy of a hostile tender
offer from MacKenzie Patterson, Inc. and associated corporation and limited
partnerships to purchase all of the Units in the Partnership. This offer was
also filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the same date. The
General Partners have determined that the hostile tender offer was not in
the best interests of the Limited Partners, that the tender offer was grossly
inadequate given the performance history of the Limited Partnership and the
inherent value of the Units, and recommended that the Limited Partners reject
the hostile tender offer and not tender their Units pursuant thereto. The
offer was subsequently increased and extended to June 30, 2002 and again to
July 22, 2002. The General Partners' initial determination regarding the
offer did  not change. Prior to the expiration date of the offer, Limited
Partners tendered 85 Units representing 0.358% of the outstanding Units of
the Partnership.

The Limited Partners have approved an amendment to the Partnership Agreement
granting the General Partners ten days to review certain types of transfers
during which the General Partners may match, exceed or approve the proposed
transfers.  The Court has rejected all preliminary attempts to halt implemen-
tation of the amendment.

The General Partners plan to continue their policy of funding improvements
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.

We are not enclosing a copy of the Partnership Form 10-Q as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission since all the information set
forth therein is contained either in this letter or in the attached
financial statements. However, if you wish to receive a copy of said
report, please send a written request to DSI Realty Income Fund VI,
P.O. Box 357, Long Beach, California 90801.

                              Very truly yours,

                              DSI Realty Income Fund VI

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

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. GENERAL

DSI Realty Income Fund VI (the "Partnership"), a limited partnership, has two
general  partners  (DSI Properties, Inc., and  Diversified Investors  Agency)
and limited partners owning 23,753 limited partnership units. The Partnership
was  formed  under the  California  Uniform  Limited  Partnership Act for the
primary  purpose  of  acquiring  and  operating  real  estate.

The  accompanying  financial  information  as  of  June 30, 2003,  and for
the periods ended  June 30, 2003 and  2002, is  unaudited.  Such  financial
information  includes all adjustments  which are considered necessary by the
Partnership's management for a  fair  presentation of the  results  for  the
periods  indicated.

2.   PROPERTY

Properties  owned  by  the  Partnership  are  all  mini-storage  facilities.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated
useful  life of 20  years.   The  total  cost  of  property and  accumulated
depreciation  at  June  30, 2003,  is  as  follows:

        Land                             $ 1,759,000
        Buildings and improvements         8,579,426
        Equipment                             38,710
        Total                             10,377,136
        Less: Accumulated Depreciation   ( 8,618,136)
        Property - Net                   $ 1,759,000



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.   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 the assistance of the
Partnership's President and the Chief Executive Officer.  These disclosure
controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required
to be disclosed by the Partnership in its periodic reports filed with the
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 iscommunicated to the certifying
officers on a timely basis.  Based on this evaluation, the Partnership con-
cluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  There
have been no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls sub-
sequent 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 VI;

    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-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and have:

         a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
         material information relating to the registrant, including its con-
         solidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those
         entities, particularly during the period in which this quarterly
         report is being prepared;

         b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
         and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of
         this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"); and

         c)  presented in this quarterly report our conclusions about the effec-
         tiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on our evalu-
         ation as of the Evaluation Date;

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

         a)  all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal
         controls which could adversely affect the registrant's ability to re-
         cord, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified
         for the registrant's auditors any material weaknesses in internal
         controls; 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; and

    6.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I have indicated in this
    quarterly report whether there were significant changes in internal controls
    or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls sub-
    sequent to the date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective
    actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

    I, Richard P. Conway, certify that:

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

    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-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and have:

         a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
         material information relating to the registrant, including its con-
         solidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those
         entities, particularly during the period in which this quarterly
         report is being prepared;

         b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
         and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of
         this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"); and

         c)  presented in this quarterly report our conclusions about the effec-
         tiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on our evalu-
         ation as of the Evaluation Date;

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

         a)  all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal
         controls which could adversely affect the registrant's ability to re-
         cord, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified
         for the registrant's auditors any material weaknesses in internal
         controls; 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; and

    6.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I have indicated in this
    quarterly report whether there were significant changes in internal controls
    or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls sub-
    sequent to the date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective
    actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
