PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Registrant, DSI Realty Income Fund VIII (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 November 28, 1983 and restated April 23, 1984. The General Partners are DSI Properties, Inc., a California corporation and RJC Capital Management, LLC and JWC Capital Management, LLC.

DSI Properties, Inc. is an affiliate 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 twenty-four thousand (24,000) units of limited partnership interests aggregating Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000). The General Partners have retained a one percent (1%) 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.

The Partnership 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 mini-storage facilities. Registrant does not intend to sell additional limited partnership units. The term of the Partnership is fifty years, The term of the Partnership is fifty years, but as of February 23, 2015 it has been confirmed by Goodrich, Baron & Goodyear LLP that a majority of Limited Partners have elected to liquidate and sell the assets and dissolve the Fund. (See Notes to Financial Statement: Item 9, Subsequent Events)

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 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 the Partnership. 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.

Please refer to the discussion appearing elsewhere herein under the caption Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a detailed analysis of the results of operations of the Partnership's properties.

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, the Partnership's business is not affected by the change in seasons.

PART II

Market Information

The Partnership is a limited partnership and thus has no common stock. There is no established trading market for limited partnership interests in the Partnership and it is not anticipated that any such public market will develop. The Limited Partnership Agreement effectively prevents the transfer of Limited Partnership Interests except under very limited circumstances. In order to transfer a Limited Partnership Interest, a Limited Partner must obtain the consent of the General Partners of the Partnership, which have the absolute right to refuse any request for a transfer. In addition, the proposed transferee must meet all applicable suitability standards and agree to be bound by the Limited Partnership Agreement.

Approximate Number of Security Holders

As of December 31, 2014, there were approximately 818 holders of Limited Partnership Interests.

Distributions

Average cash distributions of $12.04 per Limited Partnership Unit were declared and paid each quarter for the year ended December 31, 2014 and $7.54 per Limited Partnership Unit were declared and paid each quarter for the year ended December 31, 2013.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not Required.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue recognition - Rental income, which is generally earned pursuant to month-to-month leases for storage space, as well as late charges and administrative fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period. Ancillary revenues and interest and other income are recognized when earned.

Discontinued operations and held for sale - A discontinued operation is a component (or group of components) of the entity, the disposal of which would represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results, when such component (or group of components) have been disposed of or classified as held for sale. The results of operations of properties that have been classified as discontinued operations are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. We classify real property as held for sale when our management commits to a plan to sell the property, the plan has appropriate approvals, the sale of the property is probable, and certain other criteria are met. At such time, the respective assets and liabilities are presented separately on our balance sheets and depreciation is no longer recognized. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or their estimated fair value less the costs to sell the assets.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2014 COMPARED TO 2013

Total revenues from discontinued operation increased from $1,810,607 in 2013 to $2,369,638 in 2014, while total expenses from discontinued operation decreased from $1,051,956 to $1,042,674. As a result, net income from discontinued operations increased from $758,650 to $1,326,964. Occupancy levels for the Partnership’s mini-storage facilities averaged 86.6% for the year 2014 as compared to 69.9% for 2013. Operating expenses from discontinued operations decreased $14,071 (2%) primarily due to decreases in advertising, repair and maintenance, real estate tax expenses: partially offset by an increase in salary and wages expenses. General and administrative expenses from continued operations increased $25,794 (22%) primarily as a result of increases in legal and professional expenses. The General Partners’ incentive management fee increased, which is based on cash available for distribution.

Operating expenses consist mainly of expenses such as promotional advertising, yellow pages and other forms of advertising, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security and alarms, real estate taxes, salaries and wages and their related expenses. General and administrative expenses consist mainly of expenses such as legal and professional, office supplies, accounting services and computer expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $553,725 (68.6%) to $1,361,486 in 2014 compared to $807,761 in 2013 primarily due to an increase in customer deposits and other revenues from prior year.

Cash used in investing activities, consists of acquisition of property or capital improvements to the Partnership's mini storage facilities. There were no significant investing activities in either 2014 or 2013. The Partnership currently has no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Cash used in financing activities, as set forth in the statements of cash flows, has consisted solely of cash distributions to partners in 2014 and 2013.

The General Partners are not aware of any environmental problems which could have a material adverse effect upon the financial position of the Partnership.

LONG-TERM LIABILITIES AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

None.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Partners of DSI Realty Income Fund VIII:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DSI Realty Income Fund VIII, a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of income, changes in partners' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. Our audits also included the supplemental schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(2). These financial statements and the supplemental schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplemental schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DSI Realty Income Fund VIII at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the supplemental schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

DSI REALTY INCOME FUND VIII
(A California Real Estate Limited Partnership)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2014

1. GENERAL

DSI Realty Income Fund VIII, a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), has three general partners (DSI Properties, Inc. and RJC Capital Management, LLC and JWC Capital Management, LLC. The general partners have made no capital contributions to the Partnership and are not required to make any capital contributions in the future. The Partnership has a maximum life of 50 years and was formed on November 28, 1983, under the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the primary purpose of acquiring and operating real estate.

The Partnership owns mini-storage facilities located in El Centro, Lompoc, Stockton, and Huntington Beach, California; and has a 30% interest in a facility located in Aurora, Colorado through a joint venture with DSI Realty Income Fund IX. All facilities were purchased from Dahn Corporation ("Dahn"). Dahn is not affiliated with the Partnership. Dahn is affiliated with other partnerships in which DSI Properties, Inc. is a general partner (see Note 7).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash - The Partnership classifies its short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2014 the Partnership had no cash equivalents.

Uncollected Rental Revenue - The Partnership estimates the collectability of uncollected rental revenue on an ongoing basis by reviewing past-due monthly rents and assessing the current creditworthiness of each tenant. Allowances are provided based on historical write-offs. Allowances on uncollected rental revenue as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $13,649 and $22,178, respectively.

Property and Depreciation - Property is recorded at cost and is composed primarily of mini-storage facilities. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 20 years for the facilities. Building improvements are depreciated over a five year period. Property under capital leases is amortized over the lesser of the lives of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets.

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.. For the year ended December 31, 2011 the Partnership changed the accounting method for federal income tax purposes from cash to accrual basis thereby eliminating the difference in the basis of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities between tax and the GAAP basis financial statements. The change in tax accounting method resulted in an adjustment to the limited partners’ capital account for tax purposes for the year ended December 31, 2013 only in order to coincide with the accounting method used to prepare the Partnership’s GAAP basis financial statements. Accordingly there were no differences for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Revenues - Rental income, which is generally earned pursuant to month-to-month leases for storage space, as well as late charges and administrative fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period. Ancillary revenues and interest and other income are recognized when earned.

Advertising Expense - Costs related to advertising in Yellow Pages are capitalized and amortized over 12 months. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $87,454 and $104,683 respectively.

Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit - Net income per limited partnership unit is computed by dividing net income allocated to the limited partners by the weighted average number of limited partnership units outstanding during each year.

Reclassifications - Certain amounts included in the accompanying financial statements for 2014 and 2013 have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 financial statement presentation. Balance sheet amounts for properties classified as held for sale have been reclassified as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. Statement of operations amounts for properties classified as discontinued operations have been reclassified for all periods presented. The discontinued operation is a component (or group of components) of the entity, the disposal of which would represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results, when such component (or group of components) have been disposed of or classified as held for sale. Through December 31, 2014, discontinued operations represent properties that we have either disposed of or have classified as held for sale if both the operations and cash flows of the property have been or will be eliminated from our ongoing operations as a result of the disposal transaction and if we will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the property after the disposal transaction

Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent 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 Partnership 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 undiscounted future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value exceeded the fair value of the property. No impairment losses were required in 2014 or 2013.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - ASC 825-10 (formerly SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”) defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Partnership. For all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, uncollected rent revenue, other assets, distributions due to partners, incentive management fee payable to general partners, property management fee payable, customer deposits, other liabilities and deferred income, carrying values approximate fair values because of the short maturity of those instruments.

Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and uncollected rent revenue. The Partnership places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions. Accounts at banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. At December 31, 2014, the Partnership had $359,491 in excess of insured limits. The Partnership performs ongoing evaluations of these institutions to limit its concentration of risk exposure. Management believes this risk is not significant due to the financial strength of the financial institutions utilized by the Partnership.

Comprehensive Income - The Partnership has adopted Accounting Standards Update 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. For the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 comprehensive income equaled net income, as the Partnership had no other comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, accumulated other comprehensive income was $0.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Partnership has reviewed all the recent accounting pronouncements issued to date of the issuance of these financial statements, and does not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.

In April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08 (“ASU 2014-08”), which provides a revised definition of a discontinued operation. ASU 2014-08 requires additional disclosures for a discontinued operation and the disposal of an asset and component of the entity that is not a discontinued operation. Under ASU 2014-08, a discontinued operation is a component (or group of components) of the entity, the disposal of which would represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results, when such component (or group of components) have been disposed of or classified as held for sale. The amendments in the ASU should be applied prospectively and are effective for us beginning January 1, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this standard effective December 31, 2014.

3. PROPERTY

Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Partnership’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officers of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, and effected by the Partnership’s management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets;

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Partnership’s management; and

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

The Partnership's management assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, the Partnership's management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on their assessment, the Partnership's management concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Partnership to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There have been no significant changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
