               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 March 31, 1999. 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, 1999 and 1998, total revenues 
increased 6.7% from $657,089 to $700,968 and total expenses increased 6.5%
from $385,171 to $410,361.  As a result, net income increased 6.9% from
$271,918 for the three month period ended March 31, 1998, to $290,607 for
the same period in 1999.  The revenue increase can be attributed to an 
increase in rental income as a result of higher unit rental rates.  
Occupancy levels for the Partnership's isx mini-storage facilities averaged
82.7% for the three month period ended March 31, 1999, compared to 85.1% 
for the same period in 1998.  The Partnership is continuing its marketing
efforts to attract and keep new tenants in its various mini-storage 
facilities.  Operating expenses increased approximately $24,500 (7.9%) 
primarily due to increases in maintenance and repair, real estate tax, 
security 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 remained relatively
constant.

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.

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
