                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  JUNE 30, 2001


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND GENERAL

     Redwood Mortgage Investors VI, (the  "Partnership") is a California Limited
Partnership,  of which the General Partners are D. Russell  Burwell,  Michael R.
Burwell and Gymno  Corporation,  a California  corporation owned and operated by
the individual  General  Partners.  The  partnership  was organized to engage in
business as a mortgage lender for the primary purpose of making loans secured by
Deeds of Trust on California real estate.  Loans are being arranged and serviced
by Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.,  (Redwood  Mortgage),  an  affiliate of the General
Partners.  The offering of partnership units was closed with contributed capital
totaling $9,772,594.

     Each  month's   income  is   distributed   to  partners  based  upon  their
proportionate share of partners' capital. Some partners have elected to withdraw
income on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.

A. Sales  Commissions  Formation Loan

     Sales  commissions  ranging from 0% (units sold by General Partners) to 10%
of gross  proceeds  were paid by Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.  an  affiliate  of the
General  Partners  that  arranges and  services the loans.  To finance the sales
commissions,  the  Partnership  loaned to Redwood  Mortgage Corp.  $623,255 (the
"formation loan") relating to contributed  capital of $9,781,366.  The formation
loan was unsecured,  and was repaid without interest,  over 10 years, commencing
December 31, 1989. The last payment was made in 1998.

B. Other Organizational and Offering Expenses

     Organizational  and  offering  expenses,   other  than  sales  commissions,
(including printing costs,  attorney and accountant fees, and other costs), paid
by the Partnership  from the offering  proceeds totaled $360,885 or 3.69% of the
gross proceeds contributed by the Partners. Such costs have been fully amortized
and allocated to the Partners.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Accrual Basis

     Revenues and expenses are  accounted for on the accrual basis of accounting
wherein  income is recognized as earned and expenses are recognized as incurred.
Once a loan is categorized as impaired, interest is no longer accrued thereon.

B. Management Estimates

     In  preparing  the  financial  statements,  management  is required to make
estimates based on the information available that affect the reported amounts of
assets and  liabilities  as of the balance  sheet date and revenues and expenses
for the related periods.  Such estimates relate principally to the determination
of the  allowance  for doubtful  accounts,  including  the valuation of impaired
loans,  and the valuation of real estate acquired  through  foreclosure.  Actual
results could differ significantly from these estimates.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  JUNE 30, 2001

C. Loans, Secured by Deeds of Trust

     The  Partnership  has both the  intent  and  ability  to hold the  loans to
maturity, i.e., held for long-term investment. They are therefore valued at cost
for financial  statement  purposes  with  interest  thereon being accrued by the
simple interest method.

     Financial   Accounting  Standards  Board  Statements  (SFAS)  114  and  118
(effective  January 1, 1995) provide that if the probable  ultimate  recovery of
the  carrying  amount of a loan,  with due  consideration  for the fair value of
collateral, is less than the recorded investment and related amounts due and the
impairment is considered to be other than temporary,  the carrying amount of the
investment (cost) shall be reduced to the present value of future cash flows. As
of June 30, 2001 and at December  31, 2000 and 1999,  reductions  in the cost of
loans categorized as impaired by the Partnership totaled $159,090,  $159,090 and
$283,249,  respectively.  The  reduction  in stated  value was  accomplished  by
increasing the allowances for doubtful accounts.

     As presented in Note 9 to the financial statements as of June 30, 2001, the
average  loan to  appraised  value  of  security  at the  time  the  loans  were
consummated  was  66.12%.  When a loan is valued  for  impairment  purposes,  an
updating is made in the valuation of collateral security. However, a low loan to
value ratio tends to minimize reductions for impairment.

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For purposes of the  statements  of cash flows,  cash and cash  equivalents
include interest bearing and non-interest bearing bank deposits.

E. Real Estate Owned, Held for Sale

     Real estate owned,  held for sale,  includes real estate  acquired  through
foreclosure  and is  stated  at the  lower  of the  recorded  investment  in the
property,  net of any senior  indebtedness,  or at the property's estimated fair
value, less estimated costs to sell.

     The following  schedule  reflects the costs of real estate acquired through
foreclosure and the recorded reductions to estimated fair values, less estimated
costs to sell as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 was as follows:

                                     ===============            ================

F. Income Taxes

     No provision  for Federal and State  income taxes is made in the  financial
statements  since  income taxes are the  obligation  of the partners if and when
income taxes apply.

G. Organization and Syndication Costs

     The Partnership  bears its own  organization  and syndication  costs (other
than certain sales  commissions  and fees described  above)  including legal and
accounting expenses,  printing costs, selling expenses, a 1% wholesale brokerage
fee and filing fees.

H. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

     Loans and the related accrued interest, fees and advances are analyzed on a
continuous basis for  recoverability.  Delinquencies are identified and followed
as part of the loan  system.  A  provision  is made for bad debt to  adjust  the
allowance  for doubtful  accounts to an amount  considered  by  management to be
adequate with due consideration to collateral value to provide for unrecoverable
accounts  receivable,  including  impaired  loans,  unspecified  loans,  accrued
interest and advances on loans, and other accounts receivable  (unsecured).  The
composition  of the  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  as of June 30, 2001 and
December   31,  2000  was  as  follows:   June  30,   December   31,  2001  2000

I. Net Income Per $1,000 Invested

     Amounts  reflected  in the  statements  of income as net  income per $1,000
invested by Limited Partners for the entire period are actual amounts  allocated
to Limited  Partners who held their  investment  throughout  the period and have
elected to either  leave their  earnings to compound or have  elected to receive
monthly  distributions of their net income.  Individual income is allocated each
month  based on the  Limited  Partners'  pro rata  share of  Partners'  Capital.
Because the net income percentage varies from month to month, amounts per $1,000
will vary for those  individuals  who made or  withdrew  investments  during the
period, or select other options.

NOTE 3 - GENERAL PARTNERS AND RELATED PARTIES

     The following are  commissions  and/or fees,  which are paid to the General
Partners and/or related parties.

A. Mortgage Brokerage Commissions

     Mortgage brokerage  commissions for services in connection with the review,
selection,  evaluation,  negotiation  and extension of the loans were limited to
12% of the  principal  amount of the loans  through  the period  ending 6 months
after the termination date of the offering. Thereafter,  commissions are limited
to an amount not to exceed 4% of the total  Partnership  assets  per year.  Such
commissions are paid by the borrowers,  thus, not an expense of the Partnership.
Such  commissions  totaled  $33,206,  $45,164,  $46,527  and $36,700 for the six
months through June 30, 2001,  and for the years ended December 31, 2000,  1999,
and 1998, respectively.

B. Loan Servicing Fees

     Monthly loan  servicing  fees are paid to Redwood  Mortgage up to 1/8 of 1%
(1.5%  annual) of the unpaid  principal,  or such lesser amount as is reasonable
and  customary in the  geographic  area where the property  securing the loan is
located.  Loan servicing fees of $21,853,  $48,557,  $50,150, and $70,630,  were
incurred for six months  through June 30, 2001, and for the years ended December
31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

C. Asset Management Fee

     The General  Partners are  authorized to receive  monthly fees for managing
the  Partnership's  loan portfolio and operations of up to 1/32 of 1% (3/8 of 1%
annually).  Management fees of $4,617, $9,780, $10,626, and $6,640 were incurred
during six months through June 30, 2001, and for the years 2000, 1999, and 1998,
respectively.

D. Other Fees

     The  Partnership  Agreement  provides for other fees such as  reconveyance,
mortgage  assumption  and mortgage  extension  fees.  These fees are paid by the
borrowers to parties related to the General Partners.

E. Income and Losses

     All income and losses are  credited  or charged to  partners in relation to
their respective partnership interests.  The partnership interest of the General
Partners (combined) is a total of 1%.

                                  JUNE 30, 2001
F. Operating Expenses

     The  General  Partners  or their  affiliate  (Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.) are
reimbursed by the Partnership for all operating  expenses  actually  incurred by
them on behalf of the Partnership,  including without limitation,  out-of-pocket
general and  administration  expenses of the  Partnership,  accounting and audit
fees,  legal fees and expenses,  postage and  preparation  of reports to Limited
Partners.  As of June 30, 2001, and in the years 2000, 1999, and 1998,  clerical
costs  totaling  $15,252,  $19,647,  $21,748,  and $24,440,  respectively,  were
reimbursed  to Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.  and are  included  in  expenses  in the
Statements of Income.

NOTE 4 - OTHER PARTNERSHIP PROVISIONS

A. Term of the Partnership

     The term of the  Partnership  is  approximately  40  years,  unless  sooner
terminated as provided.  The provisions  provided for no capital  withdrawal for
the first five years,  subject to the penalty  provision set forth in (D) below.
Thereafter,  investors  have the right to withdraw over a five-year  period,  or
longer.

B. Election to Receive Monthly, Quarterly or Annual Distributions

     Upon subscriptions,  investors elected either to receive monthly, quarterly
or  annual  distributions  of  earnings  allocations,  or to allow  earnings  to
compound for at least a period of 5 years.

C. Profits and Losses

     Profits  and  losses  are  allocated  monthly  among the  Limited  Partners
according  to their  respective  capital  accounts  after 1% is allocated to the
General Partners.

D. Withdrawal From Partnership

     A Limited  Partner  had no right to  withdraw,  without  penalty,  from the
Partnership  or to obtain the return of his  capital  account  for at least five
years after such units are  purchased  which in all  instances  had  occurred by
December 31,  1994.  After that time,  at the  election of the Partner,  capital
accounts  can  be  returned  over  a  five-year  period  in 20  equal  quarterly
installments or such longer period as is requested.

     Notwithstanding  the  above,  in order  to  provide  a  certain  degree  of
liquidity to the Limited Partners, the General Partners will liquidate a Limited
Partner's entire capital account in four quarterly installments beginning on the
last day of the calendar  quarter  following  the quarter in which the notice of
withdrawal is given. Such liquidations shall, however, be subject to a 10% early
withdrawal  penalty applicable to any sums withdrawn prior to the time when such
sums otherwise could have been withdrawn  pursuant to the liquidation  procedure
set forth  above.  The 10% early  withdrawal  penalty  will be  received  by the
Partnership, and a portion of the sums collected as such penalty will be applied
toward the next installment(s) of principal under the formation loan owed to the
Partnership by Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.  Such portion shall be determined by the
ratio between the initial amount of formation loan and the total amount of other
organization and syndication costs incurred by the Partnership in this offering.
The  balance of any such early  withdrawal  penalties  shall be  retained by the
Partnership for its own account and applied against syndication costs. Since the
syndication  costs have been fully  amortized as of December  31, 1993,  and the
formation  loan was paid in 1998,  the early  withdrawal  penalties  paid in the
future will be credited to income for the period received.

                                  JUNE 30, 2001

     The Partnership will not establish a reserve from which to fund withdrawals
and,  accordingly,  the  Partnership's  capacity  to return a Limited  Partner's
capital  account is restricted to the  availability  of  Partnership  cash flow.
Furthermore,  no more than 20% of the total Limited  Partners'  capital accounts
outstanding at the beginning of any year shall be liquidated during any calendar
year.

NOTE  5 - NOTE RECEIVABLE - REDWOOD MORTGAGE CORP.

     Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.,  an  affiliate  of the  General  Partners,  which
arranges and services the loans of the Partnership,  has subsidized certain loan
losses  of the  Partnership  in the form of a note  receivable.  The note  bears
interest  at 8% and will be paid over a  three-year  period to the  extent  that
Partnership  losses  occur  relative to certain  identified  properties.  If the
identified  properties  recover from their  write-downs,  Redwood Mortgage Corp.
will be credited or reimbursed up to the amount of the note receivable.


NOTE 6 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In the normal  course of business the  Partnership  may become  involved in
various types of legal  proceedings  such as  assignments  of rents,  bankruptcy
proceedings,   appointments   of   receivers,   unlawful   detainers,   judicial
foreclosures, etc., to enforce the provisions of the deeds of trust, collect the
debt owed under the promissory  notes or to  protect/recoup  its investment from
the real property  secured by the deeds. As of the date hereof,  the Partnership
is a defendant  along with  numerous  other  defendants,  including a developer,
contractor, and other lenders, in a lawsuit involving a homeowners association's
attempt to recover  "damages" for faulty  construction.  Management  anticipates
that the ultimate  outcome of the legal matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the net assets of the Partnership,  with due consideration having been
given in arriving at the allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

The following reflects a reconciliation from net assets (Partners' Capital)

     In 2000,  approximately  73% of taxable  income was allocated to tax exempt
organizations i.e.,  retirement plans. Such plans do not have to file income tax
returns unless their  "unrelated  business  income" exceeds  $1,000.  Applicable
amounts become taxable when distribution is made to participants.

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The following  methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of financial instruments:

     (a) Cash and cash  equivalents - The carrying amount equals fair value. All
amounts,   including   interest-bearing   accounts   are  subject  to  immediate
withdrawal.

     (b) Loans (see note 2 (c))-Loan carrying values were $5,455,553 at June 30,
2001. The fair value of these investments of $5,286,529 was estimated based upon
projected cash flows discounted at the estimated current interest rates at which
similar loans would be made. The applicable amount of the allowance for doubtful
accounts along with accrued interest and advances related thereto should also be
considered in evaluating the fair value versus the carrying value.

     The scheduled  maturities for 2001 include  $2,937,010 in loans,  which are
past maturity at June 30, 2001.  $2,291,269 of those loans were  categorized  as
delinquent over 90 days.

     The cash balance at June 30, 2001 of $271,167 was in one bank with interest
bearing balances totaling $223,946.  The balances exceeded FDIC insurance limits
(up to $100,000 per bank) by $171,167. As and when deposits in the Partnership's
bank accounts  increase  significantly  beyond the insured limit,  the funds are
generally  either  placed in new loans or used to pay down on the line of credit
balance, if any.





























         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
                             Results of Operations


     As of September 2, 1989, the  Partnership  had sold 97,725.94 Units and its
contributed  capital totaled  $9,772,594 of the approved  $12,000,000  issue, in
Units of $100 each.  As of that date the offering was formally  closed.  On June
30, 2001, the Partnership's net capital totaled $7,220,706.

     The  Partnership  began funding loans in October  1987.  The  Partnership's
loans  outstanding  for the years ended December 31, 1998,  1999,  2000, and six
months  through  June 30,  2001 were  $7,969,735,  $5,282,773,  $5,570,576,  and
$5,455,553  respectively.  The decrease in loans  outstanding  from December 31,
1998 to June 30, 2001,  was due  primarily  to the  Partnership  utilizing  loan
payoffs to meet Limited Partner capital  liquidations,  line of credit pay-down,
uninvested  cash in loans and an increase  in Real  Estate  Owned or in process.
During the years 1998,  1999,  2000, and six months through June 30, 2001,  loan
principal collections exceeded Limited Partner liquidations.

     Since  the fall of 1999,  mortgage  interest  rates  have been  rising  due
primarily  to  economic  forces  and by the  Federal  Reserve  raising  its core
interest  rates.  However,  since  January  2001,  the Federal  Reserve has been
dramatically  cutting its core interest rates with five successive cuts, ranging
from .25% to .50%. The latest cut being June 27, 2001, which reduced the Federal
Funds  Rate to 3.75%.  The  effect of the cuts has  greatly  reduced  short-term
interest  rates and to a lesser extent reduced  long-term  interest  rates.  New
loans  will be  originated  at then  existing  interest  rates.  In the  future,
interest  rates  likely  will  change  from their  current  levels.  The General
Partners  cannot at this time predict at what levels  interest  rates will be in
the future.  Although the rates charged by the Partnership are influenced by the
level of interest  rates in the market,  the General  Partners  anticipate  that
rates charged by the  Partnership  to its borrowers  will be somewhat lower than
the first half of 2001. The General  Partners  anticipate that new loans will be
placed at rates  approximately 1% lower than similar loans during the first half
of 2001. The lowering of interest rates has encouraged those borrowers that hold
higher interest rate loans than those currently available to seek refinancing of
their  existing  obligations  to  take  advantage  of  these  lower  rates.  The
Partnership may face prepayments in the existing portfolio from borrowers taking
advantage  of these  lower  rates.  However,  demand  for loans  from  qualified
borrowers  continues to be strong and as  prepayments  and new funds,  which are
being generated from Partnership  unit sales,  occur, we expect to replace these
loans with loans at somewhat lower interest rates. At this time, we believe that
the average loan portfolio interest rate will decline approximately .25% to .50%
over the remainder of the year.  Nevertheless,  based upon the rates expected in
connection with the existing loans, and anticipated interest rates to be charged
by the Partnership and the General  Partners'  experience,  the General Partners
anticipate that the annualized  yield will range between 5.75% and 6.25% for the
remainder of 2001.

     Previously  the  Partnership  had a line of credit with a commercial  bank,
which was secured by its loan portfolio.  On December 31, 1999 the  Partnership,
on its own accord,  closed its line of credit with that bank and since that time
has not negotiated a similar credit line with any  institution.  Management felt
that the need for the  credit  line was not  necessary  as cash  flows from loan
payments and payoffs have been in  synchronization  with loan  opportunities and
Limited Partner liquidations.

     The Partnership's operating results and delinquencies are within the normal
range of the  General  Partners  expectations,  based upon their  experience  in
managing similar Partnerships over the last twenty-four years.  Foreclosures are
a normal aspect of partnership  operations and the General  Partners  anticipate
that they will not have a material  effect on  liquidity.  As of June 30,  2001,
there was one  property in  foreclosure.  As of June 30, 2001 the  Partnership's
Real Estate Owned account  balance was  $747,205.  This account had a balance of
$169,922,  $133,300  and  $767,583  as of December  31,  1998,  1999,  and 2000,
respectively.  The increase  was due to  acquisition  of a  commercial  property
through  foreclosure  recorded  as REO in  process  in  December  1999,  and the
decrease  as of June 30,  2001 was due to the sale of one  piece of real  estate
owned.

     Cash is continually being generated from interest  earnings,  late charges,
prepayment  penalties,  and amortization and pay-off of notes.  Currently,  this
amount  exceeds  Partnership  expenses  and  earnings  and  Partner  liquidation
requirements.  As loan opportunities become available, excess cash and available
funds are invested in new loans.

     The General  Partners  regularly  review the loan portfolio,  examining the
status of  delinquencies,  the underlying  collateral  securing these loans, REO
expenses,  sales  activities,  and  borrower's  payment  records  and other data
relating to the loan portfolio. Data on the local real estate market, and on the
national and local economy are studied.  Based upon this  information  and more,
loan loss  reserves  and  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  are  increased  or
decreased.  Because  of the  number of  variables  involved,  the  magnitude  of
possible  swings and the General  Partners  inability  to control  many of these
factors, actual results may and do sometimes differ significantly from estimates
made by the General Partners.  Management provided $180,054, $437,558, $193,427,
and 0 as provision for doubtful  accounts for the years ended December 31, 1998,
1999, 2000, and six months through June 30, 2001, respectively.  The decrease in
the  provision in 1998  reflects  the  decrease in the amount of REO,  unsecured
receivables and the decreasing levels of delinquency  within the portfolio.  The
increase  in  allowance  for 1999 and  2000  was to  build  up  reserve  for any
potential  loss in the  future.  The  Partnership  acquired a piece of  property
through  foreclosure in 2000. In  anticipation  of this event,  the  Partnership
carried  $668,132  in its balance  sheet as Real  Estate  Owned in Process as of
December 31, 1999.  This investment was  reclassified  into Real Estate Owned in
the year  2000.  Management  believes  that  reserves  previously  set  aside in
anticipation of this  acquisition  are adequate.  The decrease to $0 in doubtful
accounts  provision  for  the  six  months  through  June  30,  2001  is  due to
Managements  belief that the current  overall  reserve  balances of $261,452 are
adequate and additional reserves set aside are not currently warranted.

     The Partnership  makes loans primarily in Northern  California.  As of June
30, 2001,  approximately 77%,  ($4,226,859) of the loans held by the Partnership
were in the four San  Francisco  Bay Area  Counties.  The remainder of the loans
held were secured  primarily by Northern  California real estate outside the San
Francisco Bay Area.

     The United States economy has slowed from the robust Gross Domestic Product
growth  levels of 4.2% in 1999 and 5.0% in 2000 to a growth rate of 1.2% and .7%
for the 1st and 2nd quarter of 2001, respectively.  In response to the slow down
in economic  activity,  the Federal  Reserve has been acting  primarily  through
reductions in the Federal  Funds rates to stimulate  the United States  economy.
Their  interest rate cuts have lowered the Federal Funds rate from 6.5% to 3.75%
or 42% over the course of the first half of 2001.

     Like the rest of the nation,  the San  Francisco Bay Area has also felt the
slow down in economic  growth.  The  technology  companies of Silicon Valley and
other  industries  are feeling  the effects of the overall US economy  slowdown,
which include lower earnings,  losses and layoffs.  The Northern California real
estate  market  and   particularly  the  San  Francisco  Bay  Area  real  estate
marketplace  experienced increases in values of over 10% in 1999 and in 2000. In
the residential  marketplace throughout 2000, offers for residential real estate
were often at or above asking price.  The  residential  market has slowed and is
returning to a more normal  market,  wherein  buyers and sellers  negotiate  the
terms of a sale without undue influence from other buyers desiring the property.
This has  resulted  in  longer  listing  and  transaction  times.  According  to
DataQuick Information Systems,  April 2001, the number of home sales for the San
Francisco  Bay Area were 15.8%  lower than the  previous  April,  yet the median
sales price increased 9.4% to $394,000  during this same period.  In our opinion
mid priced and lower end homes have  continued  to  increase  in value while the
high-end homes have begun to decrease in value.  The  Partnership may experience
higher delinquencies due to lay offs from borrowers who need to sell their homes
in  order  to  repay  their  debt not  anticipating  currently  existing  longer
transaction times to sell a home or the lower prices of higher end homes.

     For  commercial  properties  vacancy  rates  continued to increase as space
absorption has slowed and sub lease space has been put on the market.  According
to Grubb and Ellis,  vacancy in Class A and B space in San Francisco reached 7.7
percent at the end of the first quarter of 2001.  Vacancy rates for other cities
in the San Francisco Bay Area followed a similar  trend.  According to Grubb and
Ellis,  one indication that the bottom of the market may be reached soon is that
the rate of increase in the vacancy rate has slowed.  After increasing by nearly
2 percentage points a month during the first quarter, the vacancy rate increased
at less than 1 percent a month during the second quarter.  The best news is that
according  to Grubb and Ellis sales  volumes are on par with last year and sales
prices per square foot have remained steady because banks never underwrote deals
at the rates at the peak of the  market.  However,  Grubb  and  Ellis  predict a
slowdown  in  investments  until there is comfort  that rents and  vacancy  have
bottomed. The Partnership may experience greater loan delinquencies if landlords
lose their tenants. The Partnership did not participate significantly in funding
of loans on speculative or vacant buildings.  Currently,  the commercial portion
of  our  portfolio  is  performing   normally,   without  significant  rises  in
delinquencies.

     The  Partnership had an average loan to value ratio computed as of the date
the loan was made of 66.12%,  as of June 30, 2001.  This did not account for any
increases in property  values for loans,  which were acquired by the Partnership
during  1997,  1998,  1999,  and  2000  when  Northern  California  Real  Estate
substantially  increased  in  value.  This  low loan to value  will  assist  the
Partnership in weathering downturns in real estate values if they materialize in
the coming months.

     On April 6th 2001,  Pacific Gas and Electric  (PG&E)  California's  biggest
public  utility  company  filed for  Chapter 11  bankruptcy.  The full effect of
PG&E's  bankruptcy is unknown.  Stockholders,  other utility companies and banks
that loaned PG&E millions of dollars were  particularly hit hard. When a company
like PG&E goes bankrupt,  it has a ripple effect. This has not only affected the
hi-tech and manufacturing  industries,  professional and commercial  businesses,
transportation  and utilities  sectors,  but every household and individual as a
whole. The crisis, which means higher costs to consumers, could adversely affect
the economy,  employment and the Partnership's lending in its commercial sector.
The state government,  PG&E and others are working diligently to solve the power
crisis in  California.  The likely  result is that electric and natural gas will
cost consumers more than ever before. This may have some effect upon real estate
values as demand for real estate  could be reduced as  companies  make long term
plans to locate in areas  without power  delivery  problems and lower cost power
availability.

     The  Partnership's  interest  in land  located  in East Palo  Alto,  CA was
acquired  through  foreclosure.  The  investment  was  previously  classified as
Investment in Partnership in the Financial  Statements and has been reclassified
into Real Estate Owned. The Partnership's basis of $98,181, $80,142, $20,377 and
$ 0, for the six months  ended June 30,  2001 and the years ended  December  31,
2000,  1999,  and 1998,  respectively,  has been invested with that of two other
partnerships. In order to pursue development options, rezoning of the property's
existing residential zoning classification will be required.  The Partnership is
continuing to explore  remediation  options  available to mitigate the pesticide
contamination,  which affects the property. This pesticide contamination appears
to be the  result  of  agricultural  operations  by prior  owners.  The  General
Partners  do not  believe  at  this  time  that  remediation  of  the  pesticide
contaminants  will have a material adverse effect on the financial  condition of
the Partnership.

     The efforts of the General  Partners  to  subdivide  the land have met with
success.  The arsenic contaminated portion of the property has been delivered to
the party responsible for the arsenic contamination.  The remaining land will be
made available for development or sale by the Partnership.  The General Partners
believe this to be a good result for the Partnership.

     At the time of subscription to the  Partnership,  Limited  Partners made an
irrevocable decision to either take distributions of earnings monthly, quarterly
or annually or to compound  earnings  in their  capital  account.  For the years
ended  December 31, 1998,  1999 and 2000,  and six months through June 30, 2001,
the  Partnership  made  distributions  of  earnings  to Limited  Partners  after
allocation of syndication costs of $235,837,  $217,526,  $192,356,  and $83,129,
respectively.  Distribution of Earnings to Limited  Partners after allocation of
syndication costs for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999, and 2000, and six
months  through June 30, 2001,  to Limited  Partners'  capital  accounts and not
withdrawn, was $271,543, $298,174, $280,794, and $135,506,  respectively.  As of
December  31,  1998,  1999,  and 2000,  Limited  Partners  electing  to withdraw
earnings  represented  43%, 42% and 41%  respectively,  of the Limited  Partners
outstanding capital accounts.

     The Partnership  also allows the Limited Partners to withdraw their capital
account  subject  to  certain   limitations  (see   liquidation   provisions  of
Partnership  Agreement).  For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999, and 2000,
and six months through June 30, 2001, $122,069, $128,295, $200,417, and $86,561,
respectively,  were  liquidated  subject to the 10% and/or 8% penalty  for early
withdrawal. These withdrawals are within the normally anticipated range that the
General   Partners   would  expect  in  their   experience  in  this  and  other
partnerships.  The General  Partners  expect that a small  percentage of Limited
Partners will elect to liquidate their capital accounts over one year with a 10%
and/or 8% early withdrawal  penalty.  In originally  conceiving the Partnership,
the General  Partners wanted to provide Limited  Partners  needing their capital
returned a degree of liquidity. Generally, Limited Partners electing to withdraw
over one year  need to  liquidate  investments  to raise  cash.  The  trend  the
Partnership is  experiencing in withdrawals by Limited  Partners  electing a one
year  liquidation  program  represents  a small  percentage  of Limited  Partner
capital as of December 31, 1998,  1999,  2000, and June 30, 2001,  respectively,
and is expected by the General Partners to commonly occur at these levels.

     Additionally,  for the years ended December 31, 1998,  1999,  2000, and six
months  through June 30,  2001,  $938,040,  $847,067,  $686,923,  and  $252,039,
respectively, were liquidated by Limited Partners who have elected a liquidation
program over a period of five years or longer.  Once the initial  five-year hold
period  has  passed,   the  General  Partners  expect  to  see  an  increase  in
liquidations due to the ability of Limited Partners to withdraw without penalty.
This ability to withdraw after five years by Limited  Partners has the effect of
providing  Limited Partner  liquidity.  The General Partners expect a portion of
the  Limited  Partners  to  take  advantage  of  this  provision.  This  has the
anticipated effect of the Partnership growing, primarily through reinvestment of
earnings  in  years  one  through  five.  The  General  Partners  expect  to see
increasing numbers of Limited Partner  withdrawals in years five through eleven,
at which time the bulk of those Limited Partners who have sought withdrawal will
have been liquidated.  After year eleven, liquidation generally subsides and the
Partnership capital again tends to increase.

     Actual  liquidation  of both  capital  and  earnings  from year five (1992)
through  year  twelve  (2000) and six months  through  June 30,  2001,  is shown
hereunder,  which confirms the General Partners theory on the liquidation habits
of the Limited Partners:

     After 25 years of active participation in the mortgage business, D. Russell
Burwell,  our founder and a General  Partner of the  Partnership  has decided to
retire  effective  September 30, 2001.  "Russ" has enjoyed a long and successful
career.  His original  business model, upon which our Partnership has its roots,
has withstood the test of time through varying  economic  cycles.  Collectively,
the various Redwood Mortgage Investors  Partnerships (I-VIII) have grown from an
idea to over  $115,000,000  in assets and  produced  excellent  results  for the
Limited  Partners.  Under  Russ'  stewardship  Redwood  Mortgage  Investor's  VI
originally  raised  $9,772,594 in Limited Partner Capital  contributions  and at
June 30, 2001 had $7,210,940 in remaining Limited Partner Capital.

     Over the last  few  years,  Russ has been  passing  along  his  duties  and
responsibilities   to  the  remaining   General   Partners  and  certain  senior
executives.  The General Partners are Mr. Michael Burwell and Gymno Corporation,
a California  Corporation.  Mr.  Michael  Burwell has been a General  Partner of
Redwood  Mortgage  Investors  VI since its  inception  and has been  employed by
Redwood  Mortgage  Corp,  an  affiliate  of the  Partnership,  since  1979.  The
Partnership  through the  remaining  General  Partners and the  employees of its
affiliate  Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.,  is well prepared for Russ's  departure and
looks  forward to  emulating  the steady  consistent  returns  that the  Limited
Partners have enjoyed during Russ' tenure.

     The General  Partners have  determined  that for purposes of establishing a
value  for  reporting   purposes,   including   brokerage  and  trustee  account
statements,  the estimated value of the limited  partnership  interests on a per
unit  basis is equal to the  capital  account  balance of each  investor  in the
Partnership.  Each investor's  capital account balance is set forth periodically
on the  Partnership  account  statement  provided  to  investors.  The amount of
Partnership  earnings  each investor is entitled to receive is determined by the
ratio that each  investor's  capital  account  bears to the total  amount of all
investor capital accounts then outstanding.  The capital account balance of each
investor  should be included  on any NASD member  client  account  statement  in
providing  a per  unit  estimated  value  of  the  client's  investment  in  the
Partnership in accordance with NASD Rule 2340.


     While the General  Partners have set an estimated value for the Partnership
units,  such  determination  may not be  representative  of the  ultimate  price
realized  by an  Investor  for such units upon sale.  No public  trading  market
exists for the  Partnership's  units and none is likely to  develop.  Thus,  the
ability of an investor to liquidate his or her investment is limited  subject to
certain liquidation rights provided by the Partnership,  which may include early
withdrawal penalties (See the section of the Prospectus entitled "Risk Factors -
Purchase of Units is a long term investment").


     The  accounting  firm of  Caporicci,  Cropper & Larson,  LLP  ("CCL"),  the
successor  in  interest  to  Parodi  &  Cropper,  CPA's,  was  retained  as  the
Partnership's  independent  public  accountants  when the Partnership  commenced
operations in 1993.  Bruce Cropper and John Cropper,  formerly  partners at CCL,
were the Partnership's principal contacts at CCL. Bruce Cropper and John Cropper
have been  performing  audit and  accounting  services  for the  benefit  of the
Partnership's General Partners and their affiliates for over 18 years. Effective
as of December 31, 2000, CCL resigned from its  engagement as the  Partnership's
independent  public  accountants due to the withdrawal of Bruce Cropper and John
Cropper from the CCL  partnership,  making it necessary for the  Partnership  to
retain new  independent  public  accountants.  Bruce  Cropper  and John  Cropper
subsequently  joined the accounting firm of Armanino McKenna,  LLP ("Armanino").
Based upon the  long-standing  relationship  between the  Partnership  and Bruce
Cropper and John Cropper,  the Partnership's  General Partner determined that it
was  in  the  best  interest  of  the  Partnership  to  retain  Armanino  as the
Partnership's  independent public accountants,  effective as of January 1, 2001.
The  Partnership  believes,  and has been  advised by Mr. John  Cropper  that he
concurs,  that for the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2000, the Partnership
and CCL, as well as  Armanino,  did not have any  disagreement  on any matter of
accounting principles or practices,  financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure,  which disagreement,  if not resolved to the satisfaction of
CCL,  would have caused CCL to make  reference in connection  with its report on
the   Partnership's   financial   statements  to  the  subject   matter  of  the
disagreement.  The report of CCL on the Partnership's  financial  statements for
the years ending  December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, as well as the report
of Armanino for the year ending  December  31, 2000,  did not contain an adverse
opinion or  disclaimer  of  opinion,  and was not  qualified  or  modified as to
uncertainty,  audit scope or accounting  principles.  During that period,  there
were  no  "reportable  events"  within  the  meaning  of  Item  304(a)(1)(v)  of
Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.







       COMPENSATION OF THE GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES BY PARTNERSHIP



     The Partnership has no officers or directors. The Partnership is managed by
the General Partners.  There are certain fees and other items paid to management
and related parties. A more complete  description of management  compensation is
found in the Prospectus,  pages 11-12,  under the section  "Compensation  of the
General Partners and the Affiliates,"  which is incorporated by reference.  Such
compensation is summarized below.

     The following  compensation has been paid to the General Partners and their
affiliates for services  rendered during the six months ended June 30, 2001. All
such compensation is in compliance with the guidelines and limitations set forth
