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, 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 June 30, 2004 and 2003, total revenues
decreased 9.6% from $714,842 to $646,417 and total expenses increased 7.1%
from $447,566 to $479,358 and other income increased from $111 to $130.
Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased 13.4%
from $31,505 to $27,284. As a result, net income decreased 40.7% from
$235,882 to $139,905 for the three-month period ended June 30, 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 six mini-
storage facilities averaged 73.8% for the three-month period ended June 30,
2004 as compared to 79.3% 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 increased approximately
$24,600 (6.5%) due primarily to an increase in advertising, maintenance and
repair and office supplies expenses, partially offset by a decrease property
management fee expense. Property management fees, which are based on rental
revenue, decreased as a result of the decrease in rental revenue. General
and administrative expenses increased approximately $7,200 (10.6%) primarily
as a result of an increase in legal and professional expense. Minority
interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased as a result of
lower rental revenue at that facility.

For the six-months period ended June 30, 2004, and 2003, total revenues
decreased 8.6% from $1,478,155 to $1,350,449 and total expenses increased
3.0% from $896,586 to $923,068 and other income increased from $247 to $260.
Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased 15.0% from
$69,689 to $59,225. As a result, net income decreased 28.1% from $512,127 to
$368,416 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, as compared to the
same period in 2003. Rental revenue decreased as a result of lower occupancy
rates. Operating expenses increased approximately $24,800 (3.3%) due primarily
to increases in advertising, maintenance and repair and office supplies,
partially offset by decreases in property management fee medical insurance
expenses. General and administrative expenses remained relatively constant.
Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased as dis-
cussed above.

The General Partners plan to continue their policy of funding 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
