                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, 1998. 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, 1998, and 1997, total revenues
increased 9.9% from $630,789 to $693,141 and total expenses increased 7.5%
from $400,985 to $431,201.  As a result, net income increased 14.0% from
$229,804 for the three month period ended June 30, 1997, to $261,940 for the
same period in 1998.  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 Partnership's six mini-storage facilities averaged
87.7% for the three month period ended June 30, 1998, compared to 85.8% for
the same period in 1997.  The Partnership is continuing its marketing efforts
to attract and keep new tenants in its various mini-storage facilities.
Operating expenses increased approximately $23,400 (6.9%) primarily due to
increases in maintenance and repair, real estate tax, salaries and wage
expenses and property management fees.  Property management fees, which are
based on rental revenue, increased as a result of the increase in rental
revenue.  General and administrative expenses increased approximately $6,800
(10.6%) primarily as a result of an increase in incentive management fees.
Incentive management fees, which are based on cash available for distribution,
increased as a result of the increase in net income.  The Partnership is
continuing its marketing efforts to attract and keep new tenants in its
various mini-storage facilities.

For the six month  periods ended  June 30, 1998, and  1997,  total  revenues
increased 8.3% from $1,247,285 to $1,350,230 and total expenses increased 3.5%
from  $789,107 to  $816,732.  As a  result, net  income increased 16.5% from
$458,178  for the  six  months ended June 30, 1997, to $533,858 for the same
period in 1998.  The  reason  for the  increase in  revenues is the same as
discussed above for the three-month period.  Operating expenses increased
approximately $16,500 (2.5%) primarily due to increases in property management
fees, real estate tax expenses and salaries and wages, partially offset by
decreases in repairs and maintenance expenses and yellow pages advertising
costs.  The reason for the increase in property management fees was discussed
above.  General and adminstrative expenses increased approximately $10,400
(8.0%) primarily  as  a  result of  an  increase in  incentive  management
fees.  Incentive management fees, which are based on cash available for
distribution, increased as a result of the increase in net income.

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.
