(X) DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE See page 12 for a list of all documents incorporated by reference 1 PART I ITEM 1: BUSINESS The registrant, Realmark Property Investors Limited Partnership-VI B ("the Partnership"), is a Delaware limited partnership organized in 1987 pursuant to an Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"), under the revised Delaware Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership's general partners are Realmark Properties, Inc. (the "Corporate General Partner"), a Delaware corporation, and Joseph M. Jayson (the "Individual General Partner"). The Registrant commenced the public offering of its limited partnership units, registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on November 11, 1988. The first interim closing took place on February 2, 1989, and the initial $2,134,300 of contributed capital was released to the Partnership at which time it began operations. The offering was concluded February 28, 1990 at which time the Partnership had raised $7,862,510, before deducting sales commissions and syndication costs. The Partnership's primary business and its only industry segment is to own and operate income-producing real property for the benefit of its limited partners. Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership owned two apartment complexes, totaling 336 units. In addition, the Partnership is a partner in the Foxhunt Apartments Joint Venture owning 11.5% of a 250 unit apartment complex in Kettering, Ohio, and in the Lakeview Apartments Joint Venture, owning 16.22% of a 168 unit apartment complex in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In June 1991, the Partnership purchased the 144 unit Players Club North Apartments, located in Lutz, Florida, and the Villa Apartments, a 192 unit apartment complex in Greenville, South Carolina. The average occupancy level at Players Club in 1997 was 95%; the Villa averaged approximately 83%. For 1996, occupancy at Players Club North averaged 94%, while the Villa was 92%. Occupancy during 1995 averaged 96% at Players Club North and 96% at the Villa. The Villa accounted for approximately 51% of total Partnership revenue generated during 1997. Players Club generated approximately 49% of total Partnership revenue during the same year. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Villa generated 55% and 54% of total Partnership revenue, and Players Club accounted for 45% and 46% of total Partnership revenue, respectively. The business of the Partnership is not seasonal. The Partnership, as of December 31, 1997, did not directly employ any persons in a full-time position. All regular employees who rendered services on behalf of the Partnership through December 31, 1997 were employees of the Corporate General Partner or its affiliates. The Partnership's investment objectives are to (1) provide a return of capital plus capital gains from the sale of appreciated properties; (2) provide partners with cash distributions until properties are sold; (3) preserve and protect partners capital and; (4) achieve build-up of equity through the reduction of mortgage loans.

The Partnership made distributions totaling $250,000 or $3.08 per limited partnership unit during 1997. Management hopes to continue making distributions in the coming year once the capital improvement work scheduled at the properties is either completed or the full costs may be measured. The Partnership has successfully refinanced both of the residential complexes fully owned by the Partnership. The result was additional cash provided by the new financing in excess of $1 million and significantly lower interest rates resulting in an increase in monthly principal and interest payment of only $2,300. Management feels that with the additional financing proceeds, it will be able to continue to complete the capital improvements necessary at the properties. Escrow accounts were set up as part of the new mortgages; these accounts are to be used to cover the costs of the planned improvements, but because releases of escrowed funds are typically not immediate, for cash flow purposes the cash from operations is being used to pay for the improvements. Management believes that when all work is done at the properties, potential tenants will find them more attractive, thus resulting in increased occupancy and a return to positive cash flow from operations. The General Partners continue their efforts to locate a buyer for the Lakeview property (the Partnership owns 16.22% of the Lakeview property), which once again struggled with cash flow shortages during the current year. It is felt that the sale of the property is in the best interests of both joint venturers. The General Partners of the other joint venturer in this deal continue to fund the property's shortfalls in cash flow, although are under no obligation to do so. If this support does not continue, the venture may have to go into default on the mortgage, at which point the property may be lost in a foreclosure. Foxhunt Apartments came under contract for sale during July 1996. The sale was subject to a number of contingencies and was cancelable at any time by the buyer. During 1997, the contract for sale was canceled by the buyer. The General Partners of the joint venturers feel, however, that the sale of this property is in the best interest of their respective limited partners, so management continues to look for potential buyers through heavy marketing in trade journals, newspapers, etc. The partnership has conducted a review of its computer systems to identify the systems that could be effected by the "year 2000 issue" and has substantially developed an implementation plan to resolve such issues. The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. Computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities. Management has confirmed with its software providers that all software currently in use is either "2000 compliant" or will be with little adaptation and at no significant cost. 5 ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Cont.) Results of Operations: For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership incurred a net loss of $674,316 or $8.32 per limited partnership unit. This is a large increase from the year ended December 31, 1996 when the loss totaled $222,082 or $2.74 per limited partnership unit. For the year ended December 31, 1995 losses incurred totaled $770,855 or $9.51 per limited partnership unit. Partnership revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 totaled $1,652,233, consisting of rental income of $1,531,418 and other income, which includes interest, laundry income, and other miscellaneous sources of income of $120,815. The decrease in rental revenue from that of the previous years of 1996 and 1995 when it totaled $1,552,571 and $1,597,470, respectively, can be attributed to an increase in vacancies, concessions and bad debts at The Villas. Net rental income from Players Club increased from that of the previous year by approximately $64,000 or 9%. Occupancy at Players Club remained relatively constant throughout the year; the average occupancy for the year ended December 31, 1997 was 95%, a slight increase over that of the prior year. Players Club continues to take advantage of the strong rental markets in which they are located and are clearly benefiting from on-site personnel changes (as mentioned in previous Management Discussions) made by management during 1997. The staff continue to be attracting tenants through current leasing and marketing strategies, as well as successfully retaining current tenants. Occupancy levels at The Villas unfortunately decreased rather significantly during the year ended December 31, 1997 as compared to those of the previous two years; for 1997, occupancy at this complex averaged only 83%, while it was 92 % for 1996 and 96% for 1995. In order to increase occupancy in the coming year, management intends to continue offering attractive incentive programs (e.g., free rent, reduced rent, etc.) to potential tenants for signed leases. Although this may be successful in increasing occupancies, it is also likely in the short-term to decrease revenues. There was also approximately an 8% decrease in other income during the year ended December 31, 1997 as compared to that earned in 1996. This decrease is attributable to a decrease in laundry income at both The Villas and Players Club and a decrease in interest income earned by The Villas due to a decrease in the cash which the property held in the bank as a result of capital improvement and maintenance work being done at the property. Partnership expenses for the year ended December 31, 1997 totaled $2,284,176, a substantial increase over the expenses of the year ended December 31, 1996 of $1,854,988, yet a 5% decrease from those of 1995 which were $2,412,220. The largest increase in expenses may be seen in property operations costs. Management has been performing a considerable amount of capital improvements and repair work at the properties in this partnership due to properties' age. Roof repairs were necessary at The Villas, while both complexes have been doing significant interior and exterior painting and appliance and carpet replacement. Payroll and related expenses likewise increased at both complexes; more repair and maintenance work is being performed by on-site employees as opposed to by outside contractors in order to keep costs under control. Other operations expenses which increased include utility costs at both complexes and slight increases were seen in insurance expense and real estate taxes at The Villas. Management is continually looking for new ways to save on expenses at the properties; as an example, utility costs are "regularly" measured, and cost-savings ideas are implemented wherever possible and practical. Insurance costs are also reviewed regularly, as are real estate taxes with appeals being filed as deemed practical. 6 ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Cont.) Results of Operations (Cont.): A large increase in amortization expense was the result of new financing obtained during the year on both The Villas and Players Club. The new financing led to the write-off of the majority of the previously capitalized mortgage acquisition costs. The write-off of such costs amounted to approximately $208,665. Administrative expenses totaled $344,466 for the year ended December 31, 1997, which continues the decrease noted in these expenses between the previous two years when administrative expenses totaled $373,953 and $385,701, respectively. A portion of the decrease is the result of a decrease in management fees due to the decline in income at The Villas. Also contributing to the decrease was lower legal costs associated with evictions and a decrease in advertising costs, both of which were attributable to Players Club. Interest expense increased by just over $107,000 when comparing 1997 to 1996, while the increase from 1995 to 1997 was only $15,000. The increase between the current year and the previous one was the result of the increase in the principal balances on the mortgages at both The Villas and Players Club resulting from the refinancings that took place on both of these mortgages during 1997. Management has plans in the coming year to continue making several capital improvements to both The Villas and Players Club, including but not limited to interior painting, replacement of carpets and appliances, and improvements to landscaping. The Foxhunt Joint Venture had net income of $41,576 for the year ended December 31, 1997 as compared to losses of $129,030 and $270,419 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The income is representative of the increased rental revenue generated by this property, as well as a sizable decrease in property operations expenses. In accordance with the joint venture agreement, 11.5% of the income is allocated to the Partnership and 88.5% is allocated to the other joint venturer. Accordingly, $4,781 of the 1997 income is allocated to the Partnership and $36,795 is allocated to the other joint venture partner; $114,988 of the 1996 loss was allocable to the other joint venturer, while for the year 1995, $239,321 was allocable to the other venturer. The Lakeview Village Joint Venture generated a net loss of $290,713 for the year ended December 31, 1997. This loss continues to reflect the significant obstacles this property has had over the past several years. Vacancies and delinquencies remain the property's two biggest obstacles in 1997 as they were in 1996; both items result in critical cash flow shortages for the property. The loss for 1996 and 1995 was $222,600 and $262,797, respectively. In accordance with the joint venture agreement, 16.22% of the loss is allocated to the Partnership and 83.78% is allocated to the other joint venturer. For 1997, $47,154 of the loss is allocated to the Partnership and $243,559 is allocated to the other joint venture partner; for 1996, $36,106 of the loss was allocated to the Partnership and $186,494 of the loss was allocable to the other joint venturer, while for the year 1995, $42,625 of the loss was allocated to the Partnership and $220,172 was allocable to the other venturer. For the year ended December 31, 1997, the tax basis loss for the Partnership was $656,602 or $8.10 per limited partnership unit compared to a tax loss of $136,486 or $1.68 per unit for the year ended December 31, 1996 and a tax loss of $707,299 or $8.73 per limited partnership unit for the year ended December 31, 1995. The Partnership agreement provides for the taxable income or losses to be allocated 97% to the Limited Partners and 3% to the General Partners, and in accordance with this and the Internal Revenue Code, the loss for the year ended December 31, 1997 was allocated in this fashion. 7 ITEM 8: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA Listed under Item 14 of this report.

Our audits also include the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the General Partners. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and the financial statement schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

FORMATION AND OPERATION OF PARTNERSHIP: Realmark Property Investors Limited Partnership-VI B (the "Partnership"), a Delaware Limited Partnership, was formed on September 21, 1987, to invest in a diversified portfolio of income producing real estate investments. In November 1988, the Partnership commenced the public offering of units of limited partnership interest. Other than matters relating to the organization, it had no business activities and, accordingly, had not incurred any expenses or earned any income until the first interim closing (minimum closing) of the offering, which occurred on February 2, 1989. All items of income and expense arose subsequent to this date. The offer terminated on February 28, 1990 with gross offering proceeds of $7,862,510. As of December 31, 1997, 78,265.1 units of limited partnership interest were sold and outstanding. The General Partners are Realmark Properties, Inc., the Corporate General Partner, and Mr. Joseph M. Jayson, the Individual General Partner. Joseph M. Jayson is the sole stockholder of J.M. Jayson & Company Inc. Realmark Properties, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of J.M. Jayson & Company, Inc. Under the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners and their affiliates can receive compensation for services rendered and reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership (See Note 7). The Partnership agreement also provides that distribution of funds, revenues, and costs and expenses arising from partnership activities, exclusive of any sale or refinancing activities, are to be allocated 97% to the Limited Partners and 3% to the General Partners. Net income or loss and proceeds arising from a sale or refinancing shall be distributed first to the limited partners in amounts equivalent to a 7% return on the average of their adjusted capital contributions, second, to the corporate general partner a 3% property disposition fee provided, however, that such fees shall be reduced, but not below zero, by the amounts necessary to pay to Limited Partners whose subscriptions were accepted by January 31,1989, an additional cumulative annual return (not compounded) equal to 2% of their average adjusted capital contributions, and to Limited Partners whose subscriptions were accepted between February 1, 1989 and June 30, 1989, an additional cumulative annual return (not compounded) equal to 1% of their average adjusted capital contributions commencing with the first fiscal quarter following the termination of the offering of units; third, to the limited Partners, an amount equal to their capital contributions, then an amount equal to an additional 5% of the average of their adjusted capital contributions; fourth, to all Partners, an amount equal to their respective positive capital balances; and finally, in the ratio of 87% to the Limited Partners and 13% to the General Partners. 18 REALMARK PROPERTY INVESTORS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-VI B NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995 (Continued) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (a) Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (b) Loss Per Limited Partnership Unit: The loss per limited partnership unit is based on the weighted average number of limited partnership units outstanding for the year. (c) Cash: For the purposes of reporting cash flows, cash includes the following items: cash on hand, cash in checking and money market savings. (d) Property and Depreciation: Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, and totaled $273,671, $269,181 and $240,077 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The estimated useful lives of the Partnership assets range from 5 to 25 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized. The Accelerated Cost Recovery System or Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System is used to calculate depreciation expense for tax purposes. (e) Mortgage Costs: Mortgage costs incurred in obtaining property mortgage financing have been deferred and are being amortized over the terms of the respective mortgages. (f) Rental Income: Rental income is recognized on the straight line method over the terms of the leases. The outstanding leases with respect to these residential rental properties owned are for terms of no more than one year. (g) Unconsolidated Joint Ventures: The Partnership's investment in unconsolidated joint ventures is accounted for on the equity method. (h) Accrued Rent Receivable: Due to the nature of these accounts, rents receivable are fully reserved for as of December 31, 1997 and 1996. 19 REALMARK PROPERTY INVESTORS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-VI B NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995 (Continued) 3. ACQUISITION OF RENTAL PROPERTY: In June 1991, the Partnership acquired a 192 unit apartment complex (The Villa) located in Greenville, South Carolina for a purchase price of $3,100,000 which included $373,493 in acquisition fees. In June 1991, the Partnership acquired a 144 unit apartment complex (Players Club North) located in Lutz, Florida for a purchase price of $3,007,000 which included $190,737 in acquisition fees. On September 27, 1991, the Partnership entered into a joint venture agreement for the purpose of operating the Foxhunt Apartments, located in Dayton, Ohio. See Footnote 6 for further discussion related to the Foxhunt Joint Venture. On September 30, 1992, the Partnership entered into a joint venture agreement for the purpose of operating the Lakeview Village Apartment complex, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. See Footnote 6 for further discussion related to the Lakeview Joint Venture. 4. MORTGAGES PAYABLE: The partnership has the following mortgages: Players Club North A mortgage with a balance of $2,703,147 at December 31, 1997 provides for monthly principal and interest payments of $20,824, bearing interest at 8.48%. The note matures June 2027. The mortgage is secured by the assets of Players Club Apartment complex. The mortgage payable of $2,273,368 outstanding at December 31, 1996 was refinanced during 1997 into the mortgage described above. No significant gain or loss on the refinancing occurred. The Villa A mortgage with a balance of $2,642,493 at December 31, 1997 provides for monthly principal and interest payments of $19,864 bearing interest at 8.30%. The note matures June 2027. The mortgage is secured by the assets of The Villa Apartment complex. The mortgage payable of $1,951,738 outstanding at December 31, 1996 was refinanced during 1997 into the mortgage described above. No significant gain or loss on the refinancing occurred. 20 REALMARK PROPERTY INVESTORS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-VI B NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995 (Continued) The aggregate maturities of the mortgages for each of the next five years and thereafter are as follows: Year Amount ---- ---------- 1998 $ 33,077 1999 36,455 2000 39,686 2001 43,213 2002 47,039 Thereafter 5,146,170 ---------- $5,345,640 ========== 5. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 requires disclosure about fair value of certain financial instruments. The fair value of cash, accounts receivable - affiliates, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and security deposits and prepaid rents approximate the carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Management has estimated that the fair value of the mortgages payable on Players Club and The Villa approximate their carrying values as the mortgages were obtained in 1997. 21 REALMARK PROPERTY INVESTORS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-VI B NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995 (Continued) 6. INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES: On September 27, 1991, the Partnership entered into an agreement and formed a joint venture with Realmark Property Investors Limited Partnership-II (RPILP-II), and Realmark Property Investors Limited Partnership-VI B (RPILP-VI B). The Joint Venture was formed for the purpose of operating the Foxhunt Apartments, located in Dayton, Ohio and owned by RPILP-II. Under the terms of the Joint Venture agreement, the Partnership contributed $1,041,568 and RPILP-VI B contributed $390,000 to buy out the wraparound promissory note on the property, while RPILP-II contributed the property net of the first mortgage. On April 1, 1992, RPILP-II returned RPILP-VI B's entire capital contribution and $580,000 of the capital originally invested by the Partnership. The amended Joint Venture agreement now provides that any income, loss, gain, cash flow, or sale proceeds be allocated 88.5% to RPILP-II and 11.5% to the Partnership. Prior to the buyout, the allocations were 63.14% to RPILP-II, 26.82% to the Partnership and 10.04% to RPILP-VI B. The allocated net loss of the Joint Venture has been included in the statements of operation of the Partnership. At December 31, 1997, instances of noncompliance related to Foxhunt's section 223f Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) mortgage have been identified. In July 1996, the Partnership entered into a plan to dispose of the property, plant and equipment of the Foxhunt Joint Venture with a carrying amount of $2,886,577 at December 31, 1996 and a net loss of $129,930 for the year then ended. Management had determined that a sale of the property was in the best interests of the investors. As of December 31, 1996, an agreement, cancelable by the buyer, was signed with an anticipated sales price of $7,400,000. The agreement was subsequently canceled in 1997, and no additional agreements were signed and effective as of December 31, 1997. At December 31, 1997, substantial doubt exists as to whether RPILP-II will continue as a going concern, due to cash flow difficulties, recurring losses and a partners deficiency. Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed Of (the "Statement") requires that assets to be disposed of be recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. The Statement also requires that such assets not be depreciated during the disposal period, as the assets will be recovered through sale rather than through operations. In accordance with this Statement, the long-lived assets of the joint venture are recorded at the carrying amount which is the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, and have not been depreciated during the disposal period. Depreciation expense, not recorded during the disposal period, for the year ended December 31, 1996 approximated $93,000. The following financial statements of the Joint Venture are presented on a historical-cost basis. The equity ownership was determined based upon the cash paid into the Joint Venture by the Partnership as a percentage of the General Partners' estimate of the fair market value of the apartment complex and other net assets at the date of inception. 22 REALMARK PROPERTY INVESTORS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-VI B NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995 (Continued) 6.

INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES (Cont.) On September 30, 1992, the Partnership entered into a joint venture agreement with Realmark Property Investors Limited Partnership IV (RPILP-IV), for the purpose of operating the Lakeview Apartment complex, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, contributed by RPILP-IV. Under the terms of the agreement, the Partnership contributed $175,414, while RPILP-IV contributed the property net of the outstanding mortgage. The Partnership has all the rights and responsibilities of a General Partner in the project. The joint venture agreement provides that any income, loss, cash flow, or sale proceeds be allocated 16.22% to the Partnership and 83.78% to RPILP-IV. The allocated net loss of the joint venture has been included in the statements of operations for the Partnership. The equity ownership percentage was determined based upon the cash paid into the Joint Venture by the Partnership as a percentage of the General Partner's estimate of the fair market value of the apartment complex and other net assets at the date of inception. In July 1996, the Partnership entered into a plan to dispose of the property, plant and equipment of the Lakeview Village Apartments with a carrying amount of $2,507,241 at December 31, 1996 and a net loss of $222,600 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
