Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Shelter Properties VI Limited Partnership, a South Carolina limited partnership, (the “Registrant”),owns Village Gardens Apartments (“Village Gardens”), a 141-unit apartment complex located in Fort Collins, Colorado. On October 22, 2008, the Registrant sold Village Gardens, which was its last remaining investment property, to JRK Property Holdings, Inc., a California corporation, and JRK Birchmont Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively the “Purchaser”). The Purchaser purchased Village Gardens along with eleven other apartment complexes owned by entities affiliated with AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Registrant’s corporate general partner. The total sales price for Village Gardens and the  other apartment complexes was $125,600,000, of which $8,000,000 represents the portion of the sales price allocated to Village Gardens. The allocated sales prices were based soley on allocations provided by the Purchaser. As a result of the sale, the Registrant no longer holds an ownership interest in any investment property.

In accordance with the terms of the Registrant’s partnership agreement, the Registrant’s corporate general partner is currently evaluating the cash requirements of the Registrant to determine what portion of the net sale proceeds will be available to distribute to the Registrant’s partners.
