Item 1a. RISK FACTORS
Some Potential Losses Are Not Covered By Insurance. We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rental loss insurance on all of our Properties. We believe the policy specifications and insured limits of these policies are adequate and appropriate. There are, however, types of losses, such as lease and other contract claims and acts of war that generally are not insured. We cannot be assured that we will be able to renew insurance coverage upon expiration of our policies in an adequate amount or at reasonable prices. In addition, insurance companies may no longer offer coverage against certain types of losses, such as losses due to terrorist acts and mold or, if offered, these types of insurance may be prohibitively expensive. Should uninsured loss or a loss in excess from insured limits occur, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a Property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the Property. In such an event, we might nevertheless remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the Property. We cannot be assured that material losses in excess of insurance proceeds will not occur in the future. If any of our Properties were to experience catastrophic loss, it could seriously disrupt our operations, delay revenue and result in large expenses to repair or rebuild the Property. Such events could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions to shareholders.
Because real estate is illiquid, we may not be able to sell Properties when appropriate. Real estate investments generally, mini-storage facilities like those that we own, in particular, often cannot be sold quickly. Consequently, we may not be able to sell Properties when appropriate. This could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions.
Our operating costs might rise, which might reduce our profitability and have an adverse affect on our cash flow and our ability to make distributions to shareholders. We might face higher operating expenses as a result of rising costs generally, and in particular as a result of increased costs following a terrorist attack or other catastrophic event. For example, it might cost more in the future for security, property/casualty and liability insurance, and property mainten- ance. As noted above, when our insurance policies expire, the cost of premiums for comparable coverage might be significantly higher after such an event when it is time to renew our coverage, which could then increase our operating expenses and reduce or profitability and our cash flow. Because of rising costs in general, we might experience increases in our property maintenance costs, such as for cleaning and electricity. If operating expenses increase dramatically, the availability of other comparable mini-storage facilities in our specific geographic markets might limit our ability to increase rents, which could reduce our profitability (if operating expenses increase without a corresponding increase in revenues) and limit our ability to make distributions.
We face significant competition. We compete with numerous other owners of mini-storage facilities for tenants. Some of these competitors have significantly greater financial resources than we do. Such competition may reduce our ability to attract and keep and retain tenants, and may increase vacancies, which increases may lower rental rates. In addition, some of our competitors may be willing, because their properties may have vacancy rates higher than those for our properties, to make space available at lower prices than the space in our properties. We cannot be assured that this competition will not adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions.
Our ability to make distributions is subject to various risks. We have been paying quarterly distributions since inception. Our ability to make distributions in the future will depend upon:
- Financial performance of our Property; - The absence of significant expenditures relating to environmental and regulator matters; and - Our ability to attract and maintain tenants.
Certain of these matters are beyond our control and any significant difference between our expectations and actual results could have a material adverse affect on our cash flow and our ability to make distributions.
Changes in the law may adversely affect our cash flow. The Properties are subject to various regulatory requirements, such as those relating to the environment, fire and safety. Our failure to comply with these requirements could result in the imposition of fines and damage awards. Additionally, the cost to comply with any new or different regulation could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to make distributions. While we believe that the Properties are currently in material compliance with all such requirements, we cannot be assured that these requirements will not change our that newly imposed requirements will not require significant unanticipated expenditures.
Should we incur long-term indebtedness, it will subject us to additional risks. Like other real estate companies, should we incur indebtedness on our proper- ties, we will be subject to risks normally associated with debt financing, such as the insufficiency of cash flow to meet required debt service payment obligations and the inability to refinance existing indebtedness. If such debt cannot be paid, refinanced or extended at maturity, in addition to our failure to repay our debt, we may not be able to make distributions at expected levels or at all. Furthermore, an increase in interest expense could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions to Limited Partners. If we should not meet our debt service obligations, any Properties securing such indebtedness could be foreclosed on, which would have a material adverse affect on our cash flow and ability to make distributions and, depending on the number of Properties foreclosed on, could threaten our continued viability. Our organizational documents do not contain any limitation on our ability to incur debt secured by our Properties. Accordingly, we could place financing on our Properties almost without restriction. If we were to take such action, the debt service could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make dis- tributions and would include the risk of default on such indebtedness. There are no plans to incur any long-term indebtedness on any of the Partnership's Properties.
Environmental problems at the Properties are possible and may be costly. Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations may require a current or previous owner or operator of real estate to investigate and clean up hazard- ous or toxic substances or releases at such property. The owner or operator may be forced to pay for property damage and for investigation and clean up costs incurred by others in connection with environmental contamination. Such laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of contaminates. Even if more than one person may have been responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the environmental laws may be held responsible for all the clean-up costs incurred. In addition, third parties may sue the owner or operator of a site for damages and costs resulting from environmental contamin- ation emanating from that site. These costs may be substantial and the presence of such substances may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral.
Environmental laws that govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos require that owners or operators of buildings containing asbestos properly manage and maintain the asbestos, notifying and train those who may come into contact with asbestos and undertake special precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. Such laws may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements and may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos fibers.
To the best of our knowledge, asbestos was not used in the construction of any of the Properties. Tenants of the Partnership's mini-storage facilities are prohibited from storing hazardous or toxic substances or from even bringing hazardous or toxic substances onto the property. To the best knowledge of the General Partners, there are no instances of storage or release of hazardous or toxic substances at any of the Partnership's Properties. However, there can be no guaranty that one or more tenants did not actually store such materials or cause releases at any of the Partnership's Properties. If these conditions should occur, we may need to undertake a target remediation program which could become costly and could necessitate the temporary location of some or all of the Properties' tenants or require rehabilitation of the affected property.
Americans With Disabilities Act compliance can be costly. Under the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 ("ADA"), all public accom- modations and commercial facilities, must meet certain Federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Compliance with the ADA re- quirements could involve removal of structural barriers from certain disabled persons' entrances, which could adversely affect our financial condition, and results of operations. Other Federal, state or local laws may require modifi- cations to or restrict further renovations of our Properties with respect to such accesses. Although we believe that our Properties are currently in material compliance with present requirements, non-compliance with the ADA or similar or related laws or regulations could result in the United States govern- ment imposing fines or private litigants being awarded damages against us. In addition, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will require significant unanticipated expenditures. Such costs may adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions.
Partnership's status as a limited partnership is dependent on compliance with Federal income tax requirements. Failure of the Partnership to be treated as a limited partnership would have serious adverse consequences to holders of our Units. If the IRS were to successfully challenge the tax status of the Partnership for Federal income tax purposes, the Partnership would be treatable as a corporation. In such event, the imposition of a corporate tax on the Partnership would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution from such Partnership to the Limited Partners. We do not anticipate such a challenge.
We are dependent upon our key personnel. We are dependent upon our key personnel whose continued service is not guar- anteed. We are dependent upon our independent property manager for experience in managing mini-storage facilities. While we believe we could find replace- ments for these key personnel, loss of their services could adversely affect our operations.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue recognition - Revenue is recognized using the accrual method based on contractual amounts provided for in the lease agreements, which approximates recognition on a straight-line basis. The term of the lease agreements is usually less than one year.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
2005 COMPARED TO 2004
Total revenues increased from $2,309,750 in 2004 to $2,389,618 in 2005, while total expenses increased from $1,225,237 to $1,460,842 and other income decreased from $840 to $808, resulting in a decrease in income from continuing operations from $1,085,353 to $929,584 and income from discontinued opera- tions increased from $176,643 to $4,425,172 resulting in an increase in net income from $1,261,996 to $5,354,756. Rental revenues increased primarily as a result of higher occupancy and unit rental rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six mini-storage facilities averaged 80.2% for the year 2005 as compared to 79.2% for 2004. The approximate $152,000 (19.7%) increase in operating expenses was due primarily to increases in advertising and repairs and maintenance expenses, salaries and wage expense, truck maintenance and insurance and purchase of locks. General and administrative expenses increased approximately $51,700 (28.0%) primarily as a result of higher equipment and computer lease expenses, legal and professional fees and office supplies and printing. The General Partners' incentive management fee which is based on cash available for distribution decreased as a result of the decrease in net cash provided by operating activities. Property management fees, which are based on revenues, increased as a result of the increase in rental revenue.
On June 10, 2005, a purchase agreement was signed with Station Casinos, whereby they would acquire the Partnerships' mini-storage facility in Las Vegas, Nevada for a gross sales price of $5,400,000. The mini-storage facility was sold together with the adjacent mini-storage facility owned by DSI Realty Income Fund IV, for a combined sales price of $10 million. The sales price was allocated to the properties using the relative fair values. The relative fair values were determined by the general partners using historical net income from operations. Escrow closed on August 1, 2005 and sale proceeds were transferred to the Partnership on August 2, 2005. On August 8, 2005 proceeds in the amount of $4,545,612 was distributed to the Limited Partners. The gain on sale of the facility is approximately $4,344,000.
2004 COMPARED TO 2003
Total revenues decreased from $2,487,325 in 2003 to $2,309,750 in 2004, while total expenses decreased from $1,432,594 to $1,225,237 and other income decreased from $879 to $840, resulting in an increase in income from operating activities from $1,055,610 to $1,085,353 and income from discontinued opera- tions decreased from $184,204 to $176,641 resulting in an increase in net income from $1,239,814 to $1,261,994. Rental revenues decreased primarily as a result of lower occupancy rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six mini-storage facilities averaged 79.2% for the year 2004 as compared to 85.1% for 2003. The approximate $17,200 (2.3%) increase in operating expenses was due primarily to increases in advertising and repairs and maintenance expenses, partially offset by a decrease in salaries and wage expense. General and administrative expenses decreased approximately $34,000 (15.6%) primarily as a result of lower legal and professional and equipment and computer lease ex- penses, partially offset by an increase in office supplies and printing expense. The decrease in legal and professional expense is related to unsuccessful legal challenges by two dissident Limited Partners to a proposed amendment to the Partnership Agreement in the prior year (see paragraph below). The General Partners' incentive management fee which is based on cash available for distri- bution, decreased as a result of the decrease in net cash provided by operating activities. Property management fees, which are based on revenues, decreased as a result of the decrease in rental revenue.
Operating expenses consists mainly of expenses such as yellow pages and other advertising, utilities, repairs and maintenance, real estate taxes, salaries and wages and their related expenses. General and administrative expenses consist mainly of expenses such as legal and professional, office supplies, accounting services and computer expenses.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased approximately $210,800 (16.8%) in 2005 compared to 2004 primarily due to the decrease in net income for continuing operations before depreciation and gain on sale and incentive management fee payable to general partners. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased approximately $102,600 (7.6%) in 2004 com- pared to 2003 primarily due to the decrease in depreciation.
Cash provided by investing activities, includes proceeds form the sale of the property located in Las Vegas, Nevada and acquisitions of property for the Partnership's mini storage properties. The Partnership has no material commitments for capital expenditures.
Cash used in financing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash flows, has consisted solely of cash distributions to partners in 2005, 2004 and 2003 and payments on capital lease obligations starting 2004. Special distributions of 0.5%, 1.5%, and 1.0% of capital contributed by Limited Part- ners were declared and paid on December 15, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
In 2003, the Limited Partners approved an amendment to the Partnership Agreement granting the General Partners ten days to review certain types of transfers during which the General Partners may match, exeed or approve the proposed transfers. The Court has rejected all preliminary attempts to halt implementation of the amendment. Subsequently, the dissident Limited Partners who initiated the legal proceedings decided not to pursue the matter any further.
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 anticipates that cash flows generated from operations of the Partnership's rental real estate operations will be sufficient to cover operating expenses and distribtuions for the next twelve months and beyond.
The General Partners are not aware of any environmental problems which could have a material adverse effect upon the financial position of the Partnership.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners of DSI Realty Income Fund VI:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DSI Realty Income Fund VI, a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of income, changes in partners' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its in- ternal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DSI Realty Income Fund VI at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VI (A California Real Estate Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004, AND FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005
1. GENERAL
DSI Realty Income Fund VI, a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), has two general partners (DSI Properties, Inc. and Diversified Investors Agency) and limited partners owning 23,753 limited partnership units, which were purchased for $500 per unit. The general partners have made no capital contributions to the Partnership and are not required to make any capital contributions in the future. The Partnership has a maximum life of 50 years and was formed on March 27, 1981 under the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose of acquiring and operating real estate.
The Partnership owns six mini-storage facilities located in Vallejo, California; Arvada, Federal Heights and Colorado Springs, Colorado; and two in Santa Rosa, California. All facilities were purchased from Dahn Corporation ("Dahn"). Dahn is not affiliated with the Partnership. Dahn is affiliated with other partnerships in which DSI Properties, Inc. is a general partner. The mini-storage facilities are operated for the Partnership by Dahn under various agreements that are subject to renewal annually. Under the terms of the agreements, the Partner- ship is required to pay Dahn a property management fee equal to 6% of gross revenue from operations, defined as the entire amount of all receipts from the renting or leasing of storage compartments and sale of locks.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Partnership classifies its short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents.
Property and Depreciation - Property is recorded at cost and is composed primarily of mini-storage facilities. Depreciation is provided for using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 20 years for the facilities. Building improvements are depreciated over a five year period. Property under capital leases is amortized over the lesser of the lives of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Income Taxes - No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. The taxable income or loss of the Partnership is allocated to each partner in accordance with the terms of the Agreement of Limited Partnership. Each partner's tax status, in turn, determines the appropriate income tax for its allocated share of the Partnership's taxable income or loss. The net difference between the basis of the Partnership's assets and liabilities for federal income tax purposes and as reported for financial statement purposes for the year ended December 31, 2005 is $16,998.
Revenues - Rental revenue is recognized using the accrual method based on contractual amounts provided for in the lease agreements, which approximates recognition on a straight-line basis. The term of the lease agreements is usually less than one year.
Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit - Net income per limited partnership unit is computed by dividing net income allocated to the limited partners by the weighted average number of limited partnership units outstanding during each year.
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contin- gent 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.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Partnership regularly reviews long- lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset,the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value exceeded the fair value of the property. No impairment losses were required in 2005, 2004, or 2003.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - For all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, other assets, distributions due to partners, incentive management fee payable to general partners, property management fee payable, and customer deposits and other liabilities, carry- ing values approximate fair values because of the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying value of the capital lease obligations approx- imates fair value because the terms of the instrument are similar to terms available to the Partnership for similar types of leasing agreements.
Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and rent receivables. The Partnership places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement - In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obli- gations ("FIN 47"). FIN 47 clarifies guidance provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations ("SFAS 143"). The term asset retirement obligation refers to a legal obligation refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retire- ment activitiy in shich the timing and/or method of settlement are condi- tional on future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. Entities are required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability's fair value can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 was effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The adoption of the interpretation did not have a material effect on the Partnership's finan- cial statements.
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections ("SFAS 154"), to replace APB Opinion No. 20, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements ("APB 20"). SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle and requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements, unless it is impracticable to determine period specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS 154 will be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Partnership's results of operations or financial condition.
Reclassification - The Partnership reclassified the change in payments on capital lease obligations in the statements of cash flows from an operating activity to a financing activity. This reclassification does not affect the total net change in cash and cash equivalents and has no impact on the Partnership's balance sheet, statements of income, and statements of changes in partners' equity (deficit).
3. PROPERTY
The total cost of property and accumulated depreciation is as follows as of December 31:
2005 2004
Land $ 1,512,000 $ 1,759,000 Buildings and improvements 7,515,009 8,631,339 Rental trucks under capital leases 161,181 175,116 ----------- -----------
Total 9,188,190 10,565,455 Less accumulated depreciation (7,522,532) (8,615,736) ----------- ----------
Property - net $ 1,665,658 $ 1,949,719 =========== ===========
The rental trucks under capital leases were not placed into service until January 2005 and therefore no depreciation expense was recorded during 2004. Depreciation expense of $41,152 was recorded in 2005.
The Partnership leases certain vehicles under agreements that meet the criteria for classification as capital leases which expire in 2008. Future minimum lease payments under these capital leases at December 31, 2005 are summarized as follows:
2006 $41,490 2007 41,490 2008 41,490 ------- Total future minimum payment obligations 124,470 Less interest portion 7,943 ------- Present value of net minimum lease payments $116,527 =======
4. ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES AND GENERAL PARTNERS' INCENTIVE MANAGEMENT FEE
Under the Agreement of Limited Partnership, the general partners are to be allocated 1% of the net profits or losses from operations, and the limited partners are to be allocated the balance of the net profits or loss es from operations in proportion to their limited partnership interests. The general partners are also entitled to receive a percentage, based on a predetermined formula, of any cash distribution from the sale, other disposition, or refinancing of the project.
In addition, the general partners are entitled to receive an incentive management fee for supervising the operations of the Partnership. The fee is to be paid in an amount equal to 9% per annum of the cash available for distribution on a cumulative basis, calculated as cash generated from operations less capital expenditures.
5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, the net income and the net gain on disposition of a mini-storage facility located in Las Vegas, Nevada, which was sold on August 1, 2005, is reflect- ed in the statement of income as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The mini-storage facility was sold for a sales price of $5,400,000. The mini-storage facility was sold together with an adjacent mini-storage facility owned by DSI Realty Income Fund IV, for a combined sales price of $10 million. The sales price was allocated to the proper- ties using the relative fair values. The relative fair values were determined by the general partners using historical net income from operations. In August 2005, the proceeds in the amount of $4,545,612 were distributed to the Limited Partners. The net gain on the sales of the facility is $4,343,581, which is net of fees paid to the General Partners in accordance with the partnership agreement amounting to $788,500.
The following table summarizes the revenue and expense components that comprise discontinued operations.
2005 2004 2003

6. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The following disclosure about segment reporting of the Partnership is made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. The Partnership operates in a single segment; storage facility operations, under which the Partnership rents its storage facilities to its customers on a need basis and charges rent on a predetermined rate.
