QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS
OF DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VII
DEAR LIMITED PARTNERS:
We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited financial statements
for the period ended September 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 September 30, 2004 and 2003, total revenues
decreased 2.6% from $652,525 to $635,270 and total expenses decreased 10.7%
from $361,792 to $323,105 and other income remained constant. As a result,
net income increased 7.4% from $290,895 for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2003, to $312,327 for the same period in 2004. Rental revenue
decreased as a result of lower occupancy rates partially offset by higher
unit rental rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six mini-storage
facilities averaged 84.8% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2004
and 86.7% 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 $20,700 (8.0%)
primarily as a result of increases in advertising, maintenance and repair and
office supplies expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased
approximately $59,400 (58.5%) primarily as a result of a decrease in legal
and professional expense. The decrease in legal and professional expense is
related to unsuccessful legal challenges by two dissident Limited Partners to
an amendment to the Partnership Agreement in the prior period.
For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004, and 2003, total revenues
decreased 2.1% from $1,952,007 to $1,911,132 and total expenses decreased 1.5%
from $999,100 to $984,355 and other income increased from $465 to $482. As a
result, net income decreased 2.7% from $953,372 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, to $927,259 for the same period in 2004. Rental revenue
decreased as a result of lower occupancy rates partially offset by higher
unit rental rates. Operating expenses increased approximately $47,500 (6.2%)
primarily as a result of increases in maintenance and repair and office
expenses, partially offset by a decrease in advertising expnese. General and
administrative expenses decreased approximately $62,300 (26.1%) primarily as
a result of a decrease in legal and professional expnese. The decrease in
legal and professional expnese was discussed above.
The General Partners will continue their policy of funding improvements and
maintenance of Partnership properties with cash generated from operations.
The Partnership's financial 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 VII, P.O. Box 357,
Long Beach, California 90801.
Very truly yours,

1. GENERAL
DSI Realty Income Fund VII (the "Partnership"), has two general partners
(DSI Properties, Inc., and Diversified Investors Agency) and limited
partners owning 24,000 limited partnership units. The Partnership was formed
under the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose
of acquiring and operating real estate.
The accompanying financial information as of September 30, 2004, and for
the periods ended September 30, 2004, and 2003 is unaudited. Such financial
information includes all adjustments, which are considered necessary by the
Partnership's management for a fair presentation of the results for the
periods indicated.
2. PROPERTY
Properties owned by the Partnership are all mini-storage facilities.
Depreciation was calculated using the straight line method over the
estimated useful life of 15 years. The total cost of property and
accumulated depreciation at September 30, 2004, is as follows:
Land $ 2,089,800
Buildings and improvements 7,685,522
Equipment 60,760
Total 9,836,082
Less: Accumulated Depreciation ( 7,746,282)
Property - Net $ 2,089,800
3. NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT
Net income per limited partnership unit is calculated by dividing the
net income allocated to the limited partners by the number of limited
partnership units outstanding during the period.
4. 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 evaluation
was performed by the Partnership's Controller with the assistance of the
Partnership's President and the 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 Commission's
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 subsequent to
the date of their evaluation.
