Dated: October 29, 2004 DSI REALTY INCOME FUND IX A California Limited Partnership (Registrant) By__\s\ Robert J. Conway________ DSI Properties, Inc., as General Partner by ROBERT J. CONWAY, President and Chief Financial Officer October 29, 2004 QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS OF DSI REALTY INCOME FUND IX 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 6.2% from $704,751 to $661,370 and total expenses decreased 9.3% from $488,141 to $442,657 and other income remained constant. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased 4.7% from $30,124 to $28,698. As a result, net income increased 1.9% from $186,617 to $190,146 for the three-month period ended September 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 73.5% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2004 as compared to 78.3% 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 $32,800 (8.9%) due primarily to an increase in maintenance and repair, security and alarm services and bank and credit card fee expenses, partially offset by a decrease in property manage- ment fee expense. Property management fees, which are based on rental revenue decreased as a result of the decrease in rental revenue. General and admin- istrative expenses decreased approximately $78,300 (65.2%) 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. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased as a result of lower rental revenue at that facility. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004, and 2003, total revenues decreased 7.8% from $2,182,906 to $2,011,819 and total expenses decreased 1.4% from $1,384,727 to $1,365,725 and other income increased from $378 to $391. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased 11.9% from $99,813 to $87,923. As a result, net income decreased 20.1% from $698,744 to $558,562 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004, as compared to the same period in 2003. Rental revenue decreased as a result of lower occupancy rates. Operating expenses increased approximately $57,500 (5.1%) due primarily to increases in advertising, maintenance and repair, office supplies, security and alarm services and bank and credit card fee expenses, partially offset by decreases in property management fee medical insurance expenses. The decrease in property management fees was discussed above. General and administrative expenses decreased approximately $76,500 (29.0%) primarily as result of a de- crease in legal and professional expense. The decrease in legal and pro- fessional expense was discussed above. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture decreased as discussed 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 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.
