QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS
OF DSI REALTY INCOME FUND IX


DEAR LIMITED PARTNERS:

We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited consolidated financial
statements for the period ended June 30, 2002. The following is
Management's discussion and analysis of the Partnership's financial
condition and results of its operations.

For the three month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, total revenues
decreased 4.7% from $807,977 to $770,436 and total expenses increased 6.1%
from $458,126 to $485,968 and other income decreased from $974 to $212.
Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased 24.0%
from $43,090 to $32,739. As a result, net income decreased 18.1% from
$307,735 to $251,941 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002, as
compared to the same period in 2001. Rental revenue decreased as a result
of lower occupancy rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six mini-
storage facilities averaged 85.1% for the three-month period ended June 30,
2002 as compared to 88.6% for the same period in 2001. The Partnership is
continuing its marketing efforts to attract and keep new tenants in its
various mini-storage facilities. Operating expenses increased approximately
$8,100 (2.1%) due primarily to increases in advertising, office supplies,
workers compensation insurance and depreciation expenses, partially offset
by a decrease in maintenance and repair expense. General and administrative
expenses increased approximately $19,800 (30.1%) primarily as a result of
increases in legal and professional and equipment and computer lease expenses.
Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased as a result
of lower rental revenue and higher operating expenses at that facility.

For the six-months period ended June 30, 2002, and 2001, total revenues
decreased 0.9% from $1,586,061 to $1,571,645 and total expenses increased
9.1% from $873,810 to $952,926 and other income decreased from $2,182 to
$411. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased
19.1% from $86,484 to $69,927. As a result, net income decreased 12.5%
from $627,949 to $549,203 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, as
compared to the same period in 2001. Rental revenue increased as a result
of lower occupancy rates. Operating expenses increased approximately $55,400
(7.5%) due primarily to increases in legal and professional, maintenance and
repair, office supplies, salaries and wages, workers compensation insurance,
security alarm services and travel expenses, partially offset by decreases
in advertising and power and sweeping expenses. Power and sweeping expenses
decreased as the substantial snow removal costs, associated with heavy snow-
falls in area of Illinois and Michigan where Partnership facilities are
located, were not incurred in the current period. General and administrative
expenses increased approximately $23,800 (17.9%) for the reasons discussed
above. The decrease in minority interest in income of real estate joint
venture was discussed above.

On April 5, 2002, the General Partners received a copy of a hostile tender
offer from MacKenzie Patterson, Inc. and associated corporations and limited
partnerships to purchase all of the Units in the Partnership. This offer was
also filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the same date. The
General Partners have determined that the hostile tender offer was not in the
best interests of the Limited Partners, that the tender offer was grossly in-
adequate given the performance history of the Limited Partnership and the
inherent value of the Units, and recommended that the Limited Partners reject
the hostile tender offer and not tender their Units pursuant thereto. The
offer was subsequently increased and extended to June 30, 2002 and again to
July 22, 2002. The General Partners' initial determination regarding the
offer has not changed. Prior to the expiration date of the offer, Limited
Partners tendered 22 Units representing 0.072% of the outstanding Units of
the Partnership.

The General Partners plan to continue their policy of funding the continuing
improvements and maintenance of Partnership properties with cash generated
from operations. The Partnership's resources appear to be adequate to meet
its needs. The General Partners anticipate distributions to the Limited
Partners to remain at the current level for the foreseeable future.

We are not enclosing a copy of the Partnership Form 10-Q as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission since all the information set forth
therein is contained either in this letter or in the attached financial
statements. However, if you wish to receive a copy of said report, please
send a written request to DSI Realty Income Fund IX, P.O. Box 357, Long
Beach, California 90801.

Very truly yours,

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND IX
