If you're looking to add some dividend shares to your portfolio in June, then the three listed below could be great options.

Here's why I think they are among the best on offer right now:

BWP Trust (ASX: BWP)

BWP is a real estate investment trust that invests in and manages commercial assets. These assets tend to be large format retail properties, which are predominantly leased to home improvement giant, Bunnings Warehouse. At the end of the first half of FY 2020, its weighted average lease expiry (WALE) stood at 4.3 years. While this isn't the longest WALE you'll find on the ASX, I don't think there is any real danger of Bunnings packing up and moving to other properties. This is because Bunnings is owned by Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES), which also own a ~23.6% stake in BWP. In light of this, I expect modest and predictable rental income growth over the next decade. Based on this, I estimate that its units offer a forward 5% yield.

Dicker Data Ltd (ASX: DDR)

Another dividend share to consider buying in June is Dicker Data. It is a wholesale distributor of computer hardware and software which has consistently grown its earnings and dividends at a solid rate for many years now. The good news is that this positive trend has continued in 2020 despite the pandemic. The company recently released a first quarter update which revealed very strong profit growth. As a result, management advised that it plans to lift its full year dividend by 31% to 35.5 cents per share. This represents a 4.55% fully franked dividend yield.

Telstra Corporation Ltd (ASX: TLS)

A third option to consider buying in June is Telstra. I think the telco giant's shares are very attractively priced at present for a patient investment. Especially as I believe Telstra is well-positioned for a return to growth in the coming years thanks to the T22 strategy and the easing of the NBN headwind. In the meantime, as I covered  here, I believe its dividend is sustainable at 16 cents per share for the foreseeable future. This equates to a fully franked 5% dividend yield.
