NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Partnership's
financial position as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 and its
operations, its cash flows and partners' capital for the three months ended
March 31, 2001 and 2000. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

     See notes to financial statements included in the Partnership's 2000 Annual
Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Partnership's
financial statements.

Note 1 - Organization and Business

     Copley Pension Properties VI; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the purpose
of investing primarily in newly constructed and existing income producing real
properties.  It primarily serves as an investment for qualified pension and
profit sharing plans and other organizations intended to be exempt from federal
income tax.  The Partnership commenced operations in July 1988, and acquired the
real estate investment it currently owns prior to the end of 1991.  It intends
to dispose of its investments within eight to twelve years of their acquisition,
and then liquidate; however, the managing general partner could extend the
investment period if it is considered to be in the best interest of the limited
partners.  The Partnership has engaged AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc. (the
"Advisor") to provide asset management advisory services.

Note 2 - Investment in Joint Venture

     On February 26, 2001, the Prentiss Copystar joint venture investment in
which the Partnership and an affiliate are entitled to 69% and 31%,
respectively, of the operating activity, sold its property to an unaffiliated
third party for gross proceeds of $4,575,000, of which the Partnership's share
was $3,156,750. The Partnership received its 69% share of the net proceeds,
$2,901,743 after closing costs, and recognized a gain of $972,678 ($19.74 per
Limited Partnership Unit) on the sale. A disposition fee of $94,703 was accrued
but not paid to the Advisor. On March 29, 2001, the Partnership made a capital
distribution of $2,683,340 ($55.00 per Limited Partnership Unit) from the
proceeds of the sale.

     Summarized Financial Information

     The following summarized financial information is presented in the
aggregate for the Prentiss Copystar joint venture:

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership
interest on December 31, 1988.  A total of 48,788 units were sold.  The
Partnership received proceeds of $43,472,858, net of selling commissions and
other offering costs, which have been used for investment in real estate and for
the payment of related acquisition costs, or retained as working capital
reserves.  The Partnership made seven real estate investments; one investment
was sold in each of 1990, 1994, 1997 and 2001 and two investments were sold in
1998.  Through March 31, 2001, capital of $40,567,709 ($831.51 per limited
partnership unit) has been returned to the limited partners; $38,877,693 as a
result of sales and $1,690,016, as a result of a discretionary reduction of
original working capital previously held in reserves.

     At March 31, 2001, the Partnership had $2,313,857 in cash and cash
equivalents, of which $1,194,818 was used for a capital distribution from
original working capital reserves to the limited partners on April 26, 2001, the
remainder is being retained as working capital reserves.  The source of future
liquidity and cash distributions to partners will primarily be cash generated by
the Partnership's invested cash and cash equivalents and its remaining real
estate investment, and proceeds from the sale of such investment.  There have
been no operating cash distributions made since the fourth quarter of 1999 due
to Prentiss Copystar's vacancy from September 1999 through August 2000 and it's
subsequent sale in February 2001 as well as insufficient cash flow from
Wilmington Industrial as a result of property level obligations which reduced
its cash flow to the Partnership.

     The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements
is at depreciated cost, or if the investment's carrying value is determined not
to be recoverable through expected undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying
value is reduced to estimated fair market value. The fair market value of such
investments is further reduced by the estimated cost of sale for properties held
for sale. Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. At
March 31, 2001, the appraised value of the Partnership's remaining investment
exceeded its carrying value by approximately $2,700,000. The current appraised
value of real estate investments has been estimated by the managing general
partner and is generally based on a combination of traditional appraisal
approaches performed by the Advisor and independent appraisers. Because of the
subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the estimated current appraised
value may differ significantly from that which could be realized if the real
estate were actually offered for sale in the marketplace.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Form of Real Estate Investments

     The Wilmington Industrial investment is a wholly-owned property. The
Prentiss Copystar real estate investment was structured as a joint venture.
Prentiss Copystar was sold on February 26, 2001.

Operating Factors

     As mentioned above, the Prentiss Copystar joint venture investment in
which the Partnership and an affiliate were entitled to 69% and 31% of the
operating activity, respectively, sold its property on February 26, 2001.  The
Partnership recognized its 69% share of the gain of $972,678. At the time of the
sale, Prentiss Copystar was 100% leased, while it was vacant at March 31, 2000.

     The Partnership's remaining property, Wilmington Industrial, was 100%
leased at March 31, 2001 compared to 67% leased at March 31, 2000.

Investment Results

     Interest income on cash equivalents remained relatively stable between the
first quarters of 2000 and 2001.

     Real estate operating results were $132,059 for the first three months of
2001, and $70,754 for the comparable period of 2000.  The increase of $61,305 is
primarily due to an increase in joint venture earnings in 2001 as compared to
joint venture loss in 2000 due to Prentiss Copystar's vacancy in the first
quarter of 2000.  Operating results from Wilmington Industrial have remained
relatively stable between the first three months of 2001 and 2000.  Rental
activity has increased due to the decrease in vacancy, however it is offset by
an increase in operating expenses.

Portfolio Expenses

     The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from
operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as
determined by the managing general partner.  General and administrative expenses
consist primarily of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting and
investor servicing fees.

     The Partnership did not incur management fees during the three months ended
March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, due to the suspension of cash
distributions since the fourth quarter of 1999.  General and administrative
expenses remained relatively stable between the first quarters of 2001 and 2000.
