Dexus Industria REIT (ASX: DXI)

The first ASX dividend share to look at is Dexus Industria. It is an industrial and office focused property company formerly known as APN Industria.

This REIT owns interests in office and industrial properties that provide functional and affordable workspaces for businesses. The fund's portfolio was last valued at $1.78 billion and aims to provide sustainable income and capital growth prospects for shareholders over the long term.

Morgans is a fan of Dexus Industria and recently put an add rating and $3.65 price target on the company's shares. It is also forecasting dividends per share of 17.3 cents in FY 2022 and 17.6 cents in FY 2023. Based on the current Dexus Industria share price, this will mean yields of 4.7% and 4.8%, respectively.

National Australia Bank Ltd (ASX: NAB)

Another ASX dividend share to consider is NAB. It could be a quality option for income investors that don't already have exposure to the banking sector.

The team at Bell Potter is very positive on NAB and was pleased with its first quarter update last week. So much so, the broker retained its buy rating and lifted its price target on the bank's shares to $32.50.

Following its stronger than expected update, Bell Potter has upgraded its earnings and dividend forecasts. In respect to the latter, the broker is now forecasting fully franked dividends of 136 cents per share in FY 2022 and 140 cents per share in FY 2023.

Based on the current NAB share price of $29.84, this will mean yields of 4.6% and 4.7%, respectively, over the next couple of years.
