INVESTORS, LTD.; MACKENZIE SPECIFIED INCOME FUND, L.P.; AND MP DEWAAY FUND, LLC
(collectively the "Purchasers") to purchase the numbers of Units of Limited
Partnership Interest ("Units") at the cash purchase prices set forth below for
each of the subject companies (collectively the "Partnerships" and each a
"Partnership"), less the amount of any distributions declared or made with
respect to the Units of a Partnership between April 5, 2002 (the "Offer Date")
and May 31, 2002 or such other date to which this Offer may be extended (the
"Expiration Date"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
the Offer to Purchase dated April 5, 2002 (the "Offer to Purchase") and the
related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits
(a)(1) and (a)(2), respectively.

Subject                                           Offer Price    Maximum Number
Company                                           Per Unit       of Units Sought
- -------                                           -----------    ---------------

DSI REALTY  INCOME  FUND VI,
          a  California  Limited  Partnership       $340               23,753
DSI REALTY  INCOME  FUND VII,
          a  California  Limited  Partnership       $300               24,000
DSI REALTY  INCOME  FUND VIII,
          a  California  Limited  Partnership       $340               24,000
DSI REALTY  INCOME  FUND IX,
          a  California  Limited  Partnership       $260               30,693
DSI REALTY  INCOME  FUND XI,
          a  California  Limited  Partnership       $300               20,000

         As noted above, the Offer price for a Partnership's Units would be
subject to reduction for distributions made or declared by the Partnership prior
to the Expiration Date. Any distributions made or declared after the Expiration
Date, by the terms of the Offer and as set forth in the Letter of Transmittal,
would be assigned by tendering Unit holders to the Purchasers. Tender of Units
will include the tender of any and all securities into which the Units may be
converted or exchanged, and any securities distributed with respect to the
Units, by way of dividend or otherwise, from and after the Offer Date. The
number of Units subject to the Offer may be reduced to the extent that any
Partnership's limited partnership agreement would prohibit the transfer of Units
pursuant to the Offer which, when added to the number of all other Units
transferred within the 12 months preceding the closing of the Offer, would equal
or exceed 50% of the total outstanding Units for that period, and the
Partnership's General Partner elects to enforce such a prohibition.

          The Purchasers and their affiliates currently beneficially own no
Units. The total maximum number of Units sought for each Partnership is the
total number of outstanding Units reported by the Partnership as of the date of
its most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K.

         Consummation of the Offers, if all Units sought are tendered, would
require payment by the Purchasers of up to $37,416,200 in aggregate purchase
price, which the Purchasers expect to fund out of their current working capital,
existing capital commitments and other existing capital resources.

         The address of each Issuer's principal executive offices is 6700 E.
Pacific Coast Hwy., Long Beach, California 9O8O3.

         The information in the Offer to Purchase, including all schedules and
annexes thereto, is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference in
response to all the items of this Statement.
