industrial properties.
On April 5, 1993, the Partnership commenced a public offering of its limited
partnership units pursuant to a Registration Statement filed on Form S-11 under
the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership terminated its offering on April 4,
1994, and received gross proceeds of $25,000,000 representing subscriptions from

interests, Class A and Class B limited partnership units. As of December 31,

organization and offering costs, had invested $19,789,055 in properties;
reserved $250,000 as working capital reserves; and approximately $342,000 is
available for investment in additional projects.
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership owned interests in the following
properties through ownership in joint ventures: (i) a four-story office building
located in metropolitan Hartford, Connecticut; (ii) a three-story office
building located in Appleton, Wisconsin; (iii) four retail buildings located in
Stockbridge, Georgia; (iv) a retail shopping center expansion in Stockbridge,

in Item 2 below.
EMPLOYEES

the sole General Partner of Wells Partners, L.P., a General Partner of the
Partnership, perform a full range of real estate services including leasing and
property management, accounting, asset management and investor relations for the

with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its
properties.

Food/Drug ("Kroger") which expires in 2011. Kroger's original lease was for
45,528 square feet. In 1994, Kroger expanded to the current 67,115 square feet
which is approximately 65% of the total rentable square feet in the property.
As of December 31, 1996, the Cherokee Project was approximately 93% occupied by
19 tenants, including Kroger. Kroger, a retail grocery chain, is the only
tenant occupying 10% or more of the rentable square footage. The other tenants
in the shopping center provide typical retail shopping services.
The Kroger lease calls for an annual rent of $392,915 which increased to
$589,102 on August 16, 1995 due to the expansion from 45,528 square feet to
67,115 square feet. The lease expires March 31, 2011 with Kroger entitled to
five successive renewals each for a term of five years.
The occupancy rate at the Cherokee Property was 93% in 1996, 94% in 1995, 91% in
1994, 89% in 1993 and 88% in 1992. The average effective annual rental per
square foot at the Cherokee Property was $8.59 for 1996, $7.50 for 1995, $5.33
for 1994, $6.47 for 1993 and $6.46 for 1992.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR PARTNERSHIP'S UNITS AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As of February 28, 1997, the Partnership had 2,113,257 outstanding Class A Units
held by a total of 1,587 Limited Partners and 386,742 outstanding Class B Units
held by a total of 210 Limited Partners. The capital contribution per unit is
$10.00. There is no established public trading market for the Partnership's
limited partnership units, and it is not anticipated that a public trading
market for the units will develop. Under the Partnership Agreement, the General
Partners have the right to prohibit transfers of units.
Cash available for distribution to the Limited Partners is distributed on a
quarterly basis unless Limited Partners elect to have their cash distributions
paid monthly. Under the Partnership Agreement, distributions from net cash from
operations are allocated first to the Limited Partners holding Class A Units
(and limited partners holding Class B units that have elected a conversion right
that allows them to share in the distribution rights of limited partners holding
Class A units) until they have received 10% of their adjusted capital
contributions. "Net Cash From Operations" means Cash Flow, less adequate cash
reserves for other obligations of the Partnership for which there is no
provision. Cash available for distribution is then distributed to the General
Partners until they have received an amount equal to 10% of cash distributions
previously distributed to the limited partners. Any remaining cash available
for distribution is split between the Limited Partners holding Class A units and
the General Partners on a basis of 90% and 10% respectively. No distributions
will be made to the Limited Partners holding Class B units. No distribution has
been made to the General Partner as of December 31, 1996.
Cash distributions made to Limited Partners holding Class A Units (and limited
partners holding Class B Units that have elected a conversion right) during the
two most recent fiscal years were as follows:
Per Class A Unit
----------------
Distributions For Total Cash Investment Return of
Quarter Ended Distribution Income Capital
------------- ------------ ------ -------
March 31, 1995 $313,371 $0.16 $0.00
June 30, 1995 $318,000 $0.16 $0.00
Sept. 30, 1995 $320,676 $0.16 $0.00
Dec. 31, 1995 $322,698 $0.16 $0.00
March 31, 1996 $311,988 $0.15 $0.00
June 30, 1996 $282,512 $0.14 $0.00
Sept. 30, 1996 $262,551 $0.12 $0.00
Dec. 31, 1996 $358,606 $0.15 $0.00
12
The fourth quarter distribution was accrued for accounting purposes in 1996, and
was not actually paid to the limited partners holding Class A units until
February 1997. Even though there is no guarantee, the General Partners
anticipate that cash distributions to Limited Partners holding Class A units
will continue in 1997 at a level at least comparable with 1996 cash
distributions on an annual basis.
ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
- --------------------------------
The following sets forth a summary of the selected financial data for the fiscal
years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 and the nine months ended December
31, 1993.
The Partnership which began on April 5, 1993 did not commence active operations
until it received and accepted subscriptions for a minimum of 125,000 units in
May, 1993, and accordingly, there is no comparative financial data available
prior to 1993.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATION.
- --------------------
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Selected Financial Data and the accompanying financial statements of the
Partnership and notes thereto. This Report contains forward-looking statements,
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including discussion and analysis
13
of the financial condition of the Partnership, anticipated capital expenditures
required to complete certain projects, amounts of cash distributions anticipated
to be distributed to Limited Partners in the future and certain other matters.
Readers of this Report should be aware that there are various factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking construction
delays, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of
existing leases, and the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other
capital expenditures out of operating cash flow.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
- ---------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL
Gross revenues of the Partnership were $675,782 for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996, as compared to $1,002,567 for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1995, and $819,535 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994. The
decrease for 1996 as compared to 1995 was due primarly to decreased interest
income and decreased income from joint ventures due to the changes in
depreciation discussed below. The increase for 1995 over 1994 was due primarily
to increased income from joint ventures partially offset by a decrease in
interest income. This net increase in revenues is attributed to funds invested
in joint ventures, which increased the income generated from the joint ventures
but decreased the funds available to earn interest. Depreciation expense
increased for the joint ventures from 1994 to 1995 and from 1995 to 1996 due to
a change in the estimated useful lives of buildings and improvements from 40
years to 25 years which became effective in the fourth quarter of 1995. For
further discussion of depreciation expense, please refer to the notes to the
accompanying financial statements.
Expenses of the Partnership were $86,729 for 1996, as compared to $100,739 for
1995 and $118,639 for 1994. The decrease in expenses for 1996 as compared to
1995 and 1994 was primarily due to decreased partnership administration
expenses.
Net income of the Partnership was $589,053 for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1996, as compared to $901,828 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995,
and $700,896 for the nine months ended December 31, 1994. The decrease in net
income for 1996 over 1995 is due primarily to decreased income from joint
ventures and decreased interest earned offset partially by decreased expenses.
The Partnership made cash distributions to the limited partners holding Class A
Units of $.57 for fiscal year 1996 as compared to $.62 per Class A Unit for
fiscal year 1995 and $.32 for fiscal year 1994. The General Partners anticipate
distributions per Unit will continue to increase for limited partners holding
Class A Units in 1997. Distributions accrued for the fourth quarter of 1996 to
the limited partners holding Class A Units were paid in February, 1997. No cash
distributions were made to limited partners holding Class B Units.
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of," which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. SFAS No. 121
establishes standards for determining when impairment
14
losses on long-lived assets have occurred and how impairment losses should be
measured. The joint ventures adopted SFAS No. 121, effective January 1, 1995.
The impact of adoping SFAS No. 121 was not material to the financial statements
of the joint ventures.
PROPERTY OPERATIONS
- -------------------
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership's ownership interest in Fund I,II,II-
OW, VI and VII Joint Venture was 10.7%, in Fund II,III, VI and VII Joint Venture
26.0%, in Fund V and VI Joint Venture 52.5%, in Fund V,VI, and VII Joint Venture
41.8%, in Fund VI and VII Joint Venture 42.8% and in Fund VI,VII and VIII Joint
Venture 36.4%.
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership owned interests through interests in
joint ventures in the following operational properties:

Net income decreased and expenses increased in 1996 over 1995 due primarily to
increased depreciation expenses. Net income increased and expenses decreased in
1995 as compared to 1994 due primarily to decreased expenditures for property
insurance and legal fees which was partially offset by an increase in
depreciation expense in the fourth quarter of 1995 resulting from the change in
estimated useful lives of buildings and improvements as previously discussed
under the "General " section of "Results of Operations and Changes in Financial
Conditions".
15
The Partnership's ownership in the Fund V-Fund VI Joint Venture increased from
48.4% in 1994, to 52.4% in 1995 and to 52.5% in 1996 due to additional fundings
by the Partnership which increased the Partnership's ownership interest in the
Fund V- Fund VI Joint Venture.
Cash distributions remained stable from 1996 as compared to 1995 but cash
distributions increased in 1995 over 1994 due to the decrease in expenses and
the Partnership's increased percentage ownership interest in the Joint Venture.
Net income allcoated to the Partnership varied from 1996 to 1995 to 1994 due to
increased depreciation expenses and increased ownership in the Fund V-Fund VI
Joint Venture as discussed above.
Real estate taxes and all operational expenses for the building are the
responsibility of the tenant.

The Stockbridge Village II Project, consists of two retail buildings which
contain a total of approximately 15,950 square feet. The first building
containing 5,400 square feet was completed in November, 1994 and occupied by
Apple Restaurants, Inc. in December, 1994, resulting in 100% occupancy as of
December 31, 1994. The second building containing 10,550 square feet
16
opened in June, 1995. Glenn's Open Pit Bar-B-Que leased 4,303 square feet
beginning in July, 1995. 4,969 additional square feet have been leased in the
second building with occupancy in the first quarter of 1997.
Since the first building of the Stockbridge Village II Project opened in
December 1994, comparative income and expense figures for the year ended
December 31, 1994 are not available. In 1996 and 1995 there were increases in
depreciation expense due to the change in estimated useful lives of buildings
and improvements which became effective in the fourth quarter of 1995, as
previously discussed under the "General" section of "Results of Operations and
Changes in Financial Conditions".
The Partnership's ownership percentage in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture
increased to 52.5% for 1996 from 52.4% for 1995 as compared to 48.4% in 1994 due
to an additional investment by the Partnership which increased the Partnership's
ownership interest and decreased the Wells Fund V's ownership interest in the
Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture.
The Stockbridge Village II Project incurred property taxes of $22,835 for 1996,
$19,924 for 1995 and $14,200 for 1994.

Rental income for 1996 and 1995 was the same. Since the Marathon Building was
purchased in September 1994, comparative income and expense figures for the year
ended December 31, 1994, are not available. Depreciation expense increased for
1996 compared to 1995 due to the recording of a full year's expense reflecting
the change in estimated useful lives which was made beginning in fourth quarter
of 1995. In 1995, there was an increase in depreciation expense, as compared to
1994, due to the change in estimated useful lives of buildings and improvements
as previously discussed under "General" section of "Results of Operations and
Changes in Financial Conditions". Other operating expenses decreased from
$25,557 in 1995 to $14,636 in 1996 due primarily to payment of legal and
administrative expenses associated with the first year of operating the
property.
Real estate taxes and all operational expenses for the building are the
responsibility of the tenant.
The Partnership has an equity interest of 41.8% in the Marathon Property through
its ownership in the Fund V-VI-VII Joint Venture.

interest of approximately 26.0%. The total cost to develop the Holcomb Bridge
Road Project is currently estimated to be approximately $5,100,000, excluding
land. It is anticipated that of the remaining cost of approximately $183,000,
$83,000 will be contributed by Wells Fund VII and $100,000 by the Partnership,
after which the equity interests in the property will be 26.4% for the
Partnership, 48.3% for Wells Fund VII and 25.3% for the Fund II - Fund III Joint
Venture. The Partnership and Wells Fund VII have reserved sufficient funds for
this purpose.

Rental income increased in 1996 over 1995 due to the Kroger expansion which was
completed in November, 1994. Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1995
increased approximately $225,000 from the rental income for the year ended
December 31, 1994. This increase is due to
22
excessive rents relating to the Kroger expansion which, although completed in
November of 1994, was billed retroactively and paid in September 1995. The
decrease in occupancy in 1996, was due to the current vacancy of 2,380 square
feet; however, a lease is being negotiated for 1,200 square feet with
anticipated occupancy in February 1997. Operating expenses of the property
increased to $659,142 in 1996 from $429,287 in 1995, and $764,823 in 1994. The
increase is due primarily to increased management and leasing fees as well as
increased depreciation expense. The increase in depreciation expense for 1996 as
compared to 1995 and 1994 is a result of the change in the estimated useful
lives of buildings and improvements which became effective in the fourth quarter
of 1995, as previously discussed under the "General" section of "Results of
Operations and Changes in Financial Conditions". Net income of the property
decreased to $231,882 in 1996 from $349,097 in 1995 and increased from (211,950)
in 1994, due to the increase in operating expenses as discussed above.
A lease amendment was executed with Kroger expanding its existing store at the
Cherokee Commons Shopping Center from 45,528 square feet to 66,918 square feet.
In November, 1994, construction was completed on the Kroger expansion and
remodeling of the center. The total cost for both the Kroger expansion and
remodeling of the center was $2,807,367. The costs of this expansion were
funded in the following amounts: Wells Fund I $94,679, Fund II-II-OW $805,092,
Wells Fund VII $953,798 and the Partnership $953.798 as of December 31, 1995.
The statements are for a twelve month period; however, the Partnership and Wells
Fund VII did not contribute their portion until August, 1995.
The Cherokee Property incurred property taxes of $63,696 for 1996, $63,694 for
1995 and $56,080 for 1994.
Since the Partnership did not contribute to the Fund I - II - II-OW - VI - VII
Joint Venture until August, 1995, there are no cash distributions or income
allocated to the Partnership for 1994. Allocation of cash distributions and
income to the Partnership began in August, 1995.
For comments on the general competitive conditions to which the property may be
subject, see Item 1, Business, page 2. For additional information on tenants,
etc. refer to Item 2, Properties, page 3.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
During its offering, which terminated on April 4, 1994, the Partnership raised a
total of $25,000,000 in capital through the sale of 2,500,000 units. No
additional units will be sold by the Partnership. From the original funds
raised, the Partnership incurred $4,619,157 in commissions, acquisition fees,
organization and offering costs; invested $19,789,055 in properties; reserved
$250,000 as working capital reserves; and the remainder of approximately
$342,000 is reserved for investment in joint ventures. It is currently
anticipated that approximately $242,000 will be contributed to the Fund V - Fund
VI Joint Venture to complete the Stockbridge Village II Project and
approximately $100,000 will be contributed to the Fund II, III, VI and VII Joint
Venture. No additional funding to the joint ventures are anticipated by the
Partnership.
23
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had working capital cash reserves of
$250,000. The Partnership is required to maintain working capital reserves in
an amount equal to the operating expenses estimated to be required to operate
the Partnership for a six month period, not to exceed 3% or be reduced below 1%
of offering proceeds available for investment in properties. The General
Partners believe such working capital reserves will be adequate.
The Partnership's net cash provided by operating activities decreased from
$234,119 for the year ended December 31, 1994 to $(216,092) for the year ended
December 31, 1995 but increased to $(143,341) for the year ended December 31,
1996 primarily due to increases in distributions from joint ventures partially
offset by decreased interest income in 1996. Net cash used in investing
activities increased from $5,912,454 in 1994 to $10,721,376 in 1995 but
decreased to $234,924 in 1996 due primarily to fluctuation in investments in
joint ventures, a return of capital in 1996 due to a transfer of funds from the
Tanglewood Project to the Holcomb Bridge Road Project and elimination in 1995
and 1996 of deferred project cost paid in 1994. Cash flow from financing
activities decreased from $10,386,552 in 1994 to $0 in 1995 and 1996. The
decrease from 1994 is due to the termination of the sale of Partnership units in
1995. No Partnership unit sales by the Partnership are allowed after the
termination date of April 4, 1994 as stated in the Prospectus.
The Partnership's distributions paid and payable through the fourth quarter of
1996 have been paid from net cash from operations and from distributions
received from its equity investment in joint ventures. The Partnership
anticipates that distributions will continue to be paid on a quarterly basis
from such sources. No cash distributions were paid to Class B Unit holders for
1996. The Partnership expects to meet liquidity requirements and budget demands
through cash flow from operations.
The Partnership is unaware of any known demands, commitments, events or capital
expenditures other than that which is required for the normal operations of the
properties in which it owns a joint venture interest that will result in the
Partnership's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.
INFLATION
- ---------
The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the
past three years due to the relatively low inflation rate. There are provisions
in the majority of tenant leases to protect the partnership from the impact of
inflation. Most leases contain common area maintenance charges, real estate tax
and insurance reimbursements on a per square foot basis, or in some cases,
annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per square foot
allowance. These provisions reduce the Partnership exposure to increases in
costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In addition, a number of
the Partnership's leases are for terms of less than five years which may permit
the Partnership to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rental
rates if the existing leases are below market rate. There is no assurance,
however, that the Partnership would be able to replace existing leases with new
leases at higher base rentals.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of
Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND VI,
L.P. (a Georgia public limited partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and
the related statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for the
years then ended. These financial statements and the schedule referred to below
are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and schedule are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P.
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
