PART I
Item l. BUSINESS
Registrant, DSI Realty Income Fund IX (the "Partnership") is a
publicly-held limited partnership organized under the California Uniform Limited
Partnership Act pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership
(hereinafter referred to as "Agreement") dated March 6, 1985, as amended and
restated to November 1, 1985. The General Partners are DSI Properties, Inc., a
California corporation, Robert J. Conway and Joseph W. Conway, brothers. The
General Partners are affiliates of Diversified Securities, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of DSI Financial, Inc. The General Partners provide similar services
to other partnerships. Through its public offering of Limited Partnership Units,
Registrant sold thirty thousand six hundred ninety-three (30,693) units of
limited partnership interests aggregating Fifteen Million Three Hundred
Forty-Six Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($15,346,500) The General Partners have
retained a one percent (l%) interest in all profits, losses and distributions
(subject to certain conditions) without making any capital contribution to the
Partnership. The General Partners are not required to make any capital
contributions to the Partnership in the future. Registrant is engaged in the
business of investing in and operating mini-storage facilities with the primary
objectives of generating, for its partners, cash flow, capital appreciation of
its properties, and obtaining federal income tax deductions so that during the
early years of operations, all or a portion of such distributable cash may not
represent taxable income to its partners. Funds obtained by Registrant during
the public offering period of its units were used to acquire five mini-storage
facilities, as well as a joint venture interest with an affiliated Partnership
(DSI Realty Income Fund VIII, a California Limited Partnership) in which the
Partnership has a 70% interest in a mini-storage facility located in Aurora,
Colorado. Registrant does not intend to sell additional limited partnership
units. The term of the Partnership is fifty years but it is anticipated that
Registrant will sell and/or refinance its properties prior to the termination of
the Partnership. The Partnership is intended to be self-liquidating and it is
not intended that proceeds from the sale or refinancing of its operating
properties will be reinvested. Registrant has no full time employees but shares
one or more employees with other publicly-held limited partnerships sponsored by
the General Partners. The General Partners are vested with authority as to the
general management and supervision of the business and affairs of Registrant.
Limited Partners have no right to participate in the management or conduct of
such business and affairs. An independent management company has been retained
to provide day-to-day management services with respect to all of the
Partnership's investment properties.
Average occupancy levels for each of the Partnership's properties for the
years ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 are as follows:
Location of Property Average Occupancy Average Occupancy
Level for the Level for the
Year Ended Year Ended
Dec. 31, 1999 Dec. 31, 1998
Azusa, CA 81% 85%
Elgin, IL 81% 79%
Everett, WA 82% 80%
Monterey Park, CA 88% 90%
Romeoville, IL 75% 77%
Aurora, CO* 88% 88%
*The Partnership owns a 70% interest in this facility.
The business in which the Partnership is engaged is highly competitive.
Each of its mini-storage facilities is located in or near a major urban area,
and accordingly, competes with a significant number of individuals and
organizations with respect to both the purchase and sale of its properties and
for rentals. Generally, Registrant's business is not affected by the change in
seasons.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
Registrant owns a fee interest in five mini-storage facilities, as well as
a 70% interest in a joint venture with an affiliated partnership (DSI Realty
Income Fund VIII, a California Limited Partnership) which joint venture owns a
mini-storage facility, none of which are subject to long-term indebtedness. The
following table sets forth information as of December 31, 1999 regarding
properties owned by the Partnership.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1999 COMPARED TO 1998
Total revenues increase from $2,779,151 in 1998 to $2,878,176 in 1999,
while total expenses increased from $1,684,393 to $1,833,773 and minority
interest in income of the real estate joint venture increased from $109,741
to $122,453. As a result of these fluctuations, net income decreased from
$985,017 to $921,950. The approximate $101,500 (3.7%) increase in rental
revenues can be attributed to higher unit rental rates. Occupancy levels
for the Partnership's six mini-storage units averaged 82.4% for the year end-
ed December 31, 1999 and 83.8% for the year ended December 31, 1998. The
Partnership is continuing its advertising campaign to attract and keep new
tenants in its various mini-storage facilities. The approximate $83,800
(11.6%) increase in operating expenses was due primarily to increases in
yellow pages and other advertising costs, maintenance and repair, salaries
and wages, workers compensation and power and sweeping expenses partially
offset by real estate tax and security alarm service expenses. General and
administrative expenses increased approximately $9,600 (6.4%) as a result of
relatively insignificant fluctuations in various expense accounts. General
Partners' incentive management fees increased approximately $15,300 (12.2%).
These fees, which are based on cash distributions to Limited Partners, in-
creased as a result of an increase in these distributions. Property manage-
ment fees, which are based on rental revenue, increased as a result of the
increase in rental revenue.
1998 COMPARED TO 1997
Total revenues increased from $2,624,488 in 1997 to $2,779,151 in 1998,
total expenses increased from $1,674,192 to $1,684,393 and minority interest
in income of the real estate joint venture increased from $93,305 to $109,741.
As a result of these fluctuations, net income increased from $856,991 in 1997
to $985,017 in 1998. The increase in rental revenues can be attributed to
higher unit rental rates. Average occupancy levels for the Partnership's six
mini-storage facilities decreased from 84.9% for the year ended December 31,
1997, to 83.8% for the year ended December 31, 1998. The Partnership is
continuing its advertising campaign to attract and keep new tenants in its
various mini-storage facilities. Operating expenses remained relatively
constant with decreases in yellow pages advertising costs, salaries and
wages and worker's compensation insurance expenses being offset by increases
in maintenance and repairs and real estate tax. General and administrative
expenses increased approximately $3,500 (2.4%) as a result of relatively
insignificant fluctuations in various expense accounts. General Partners'
incentive management fees remained constant. Property management fees,
which are based on rental revenue, increased as a result of the increase
in rental revenue. The amount of income from the Partnership's real estate
joint venture allocated to the minority partner increased due to the increased
profitability of the joint venture.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by approximately
$62,800 (3.7%) in 1999 compared to 1998 primarily as a result of the decrease
in net income and decrease in other assets. Net cash provided by operating
activities increased by approximately $207,600 (13.9%) as a result of the
primarily as a result of the increase in net income partially offset by
increase in net income and decrease in other assets.
Cash used in financing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash
flows, has been used for distributions to partners and the minority interest in
the Partnership's real estate joint venture. Special distributions of 2%,1%
and 1% were declared and paid on December 15, 1999, 1998 and 1997.
Cash used in investing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash
flows, consists of acquisitions of equipment for the Partnership's mini-storage
facilities in 1999. The Partnership has no material commitments for
capital expenditures.
The General Partners plan to continue their policy of funding the
continuing improvement and maintenance of Partnership properties with cash
generated from operations. The Partnership's resources appear to be adequate to
meet its needs for the next twelve months.
The General Partners are not aware of any environmental problems which
could have a material adverse effect upon the financial position of the
Partnership.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners of
DSI Realty Income Fund IX:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DSI Realty Income Fund IX, a
California Real Estate Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") as of December
31, 1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes
in partners' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1999. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements 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 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of DSI Realty Income Fund IX
at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND IX
(A California Real Estate Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999
1. GENERAL
DSI Realty Income Fund IX, a California Real Estate Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership"), has three general partners (DSI Properties, Inc.,
Robert J. Conway and Joseph W. Conway) and limited partners owning 30,693
limited partnership units which were purchased for $500 a unit. The
general partners have made no contribution to the Partnership and are not
required to make any capital contribution in the future. The Partnership
has a maximum life of 50 years and was formed on April 12, 1985 under the
California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose of
acquiring and operating real estate.
The Partnership has acquired five mini-storage facilities located in
Monterey Park and Azusa, California; Everett, Washington;and Romeoville and
Elgin, Illinois. The Partnership also entered into a joint venture with
DSI Realty Income Fund VIII through which the Partnership has a 70 percent
interest in a mini-storage facility in Aurora, Colorado. The facilities
were acquired from Dahn Corporation ("Dahn"). Dahn is not affiliated with
the Partnership. Dahn is affiliated with other partnerships in which
DSI Properties, Inc., Robert J. Conway and Joseph W. Conway are the general
partners. The mini-storage facilities are operated for the Partnership
by Dahn under various agreements which are subject to renewal annually.
Under the terms of the agreements, the Partnership is required to pay
Dahn a property management fee equal to five percent of gross revenue from
operations, as defined.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of DSI Realty Income Fund IX and its 70 percent-owned
real estate joint venture. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Partnership classifies its short-term
investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less as
cash equivalents.
Property and Depreciation - Property is recorded at cost and is composed
primarily of mini-storage facilities. Depreciation is provided for using
the straight-line method over an estimated useful life ranging from 15 to
20 years for the facilities. Improvements are depreciated over a five-year
period.
Income Taxes - No provision has been made for income taxes in the
accompanying financial statements. The taxable income or loss of the
Partnership is allocated to each partner in accordance with the terms of
the Agreement of Limited Partnership. Each partner's tax status, in turn,
determines the appropriate income tax for its allocated share of the
Partnership's taxable income or loss. The net difference between the bases
of the Partnership's assets and liabilities for federal income tax purposes
as as reported for financial statement purposes is $1,749,159.
Revenues - Rental revenue is recognized using the accrual method based on
contractual amounts provided for in the lease agreements, which
approximates recognition on a straight-line basis. The term of the lease
agreements is usually less than one year.
Reclassification - Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 and
1997 amounts to conform to the 1999 presentation.
Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit - Net income per limited
partnership unit is computed by dividing the net income allocated to the
limited partners by the weighted average number of limited partnership
units outstanding during each year (30,693 in 1999, 1998 and 1997).
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires the Partnership's
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company regularly reviews long-
lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
If the sum of the expected future cash flow is less than the carrying
amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment. No impairment
losses were required in 1999,1998, or 1997.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company's financial instruments
consist primarily of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities. The carrying values of all financial instruments are
representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities.
Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially
subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily
of cash equivalents and rent receivables. The Partnership places its cash
equivalents with high credit quality institutions.

----------- ----------
Property, net $ 5,700,171 $ 6,245,163
=========== ===========
4. ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES
Under the Agreement of Limited Partnership, the general partners are to be
allocated one percent of the net profits or losses from operations and the
limited partners are to be allocated the balance of the net profits or
losses from operations in proportion to their limited partnership
interests. The general partners are also entitled to receive a percent-
age, based on a predetermined formula, of any cash distribution from
the sale, other disposition, or refinancing of a real estate project.
In addition, the general partners are entitled to an incentive management
fee for supervising the operations of the Partnership. The fee is to be
paid in an amount equal to nine percent per annum of Partnership distri-
butions made from cash available for distribution from operations, as
defined.
5. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The following disclosure about segment reporting of the Partnership is
made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The Partnership
operates under a single segment; storage facility operations, under which
the Partnership rents its storage facilities to its customers on a need
basis and charges rent on a predetermined rate.
