QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS
OF DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VIII
DEAR LIMITED PARTNERS:
We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited financial
statements for the period ended March 31, 2004. 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 March 31, 2004 and 2003, total revenues
decreased 7.1% from $638,203 to $592,660, total expenses decreased 2.8% from
$289,575 to $281,383, other income decreased from $191 to $184 and equity in
income of the real estate joint venture decreased 16.3% from $38,184 to
$31,941. As a result, net income decreased 11.3% from $387,003 to $343,402
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, as compared to the same
period in 2003. Rental revenue decreased as a result of lower occupancy
rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's five mini-storage facilities
averaged 84.1% for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, and 88.9%
for the same period in 2003. The Partnership is continuing its marketing
efforts to attract and keep new tenants in its various mini-storage facilities.
Operating expenses remained relatively constant. General and administrative
expenses decreased approximately $10,400 (13.2%) as a result of lower in-
centive management and equipment and computer lease expenses. Equity in
income of real estate joint venture decreased approximately $6,200 (16.2%)
primarily as a result of a lower occupancy rate at that facility.
The General Partners will continue their policy of funding continuing
improvement 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 VIII, P.O. Box 357, Long
Beach, California 90801.
Very truly yours,
DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VIII

agreement, the Partnership is entitled to 30% of the profits and losses of

income allocated to the limited partners by the number of limited
partnership units outstanding during the period.
5. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Partnership evaluated
the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. This evalu-
ation was performed by the Partnership's Controller with the assistance of
the Partnership's President and Chief Executive Officer. These disclosure
controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required
to be disclosed by the Partnership in its periodic reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the Commissions
rules and forms, and that the information is communicated to the certifying
officers on a timely basis. Based on this evaluation, the Partnership con-
cluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There
have been no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls sub-
sequent to the date of their evaluation.
