     Bond  Purchase,   L.L.C.,  a  Missouri  limited  liability  company  ("Bond
Purchase"),  hereby amends its  Solicitation of Consents dated June 8, 2001 (the
"Solicitation")  by which Bond  Purchase  is  seeking  the  approval  by written
consent (the  "Consents") of the limited partners (the "Limited  Partners"),  of
Real  Estate  Associates  Limited  VI, a  California  limited  partnership  (the
"Partnership"),  to remove the current  general  partners  and to  continue  the
Partnership  and  elect New G.P.,  L.L.C.,  ("New  G.P."),  a  Missouri  limited
liability company, as the new general partner of the Partnership. New G.P. is an
affiliate of Bond  Purchase.  The  election of New G.P. as a general  partner is

Consents on a daily basis or for such period or periods as it may  determine  in

all Consents  delivered to Bond Purchase will remain  effective,  unless validly
revoked prior to the Expiration Date. In order to validly revoke a consent,  the
revocation must be delivered to N.S. Taylor & Associates, Inc.

     We will not deem any  revocation of a prior  consent to be validly  revoked
unless it is sent to N.S. Taylor & Associates, Inc.

the original  Solicitation  of Consents dated June 8, 2001, as amended,  and the
