Do you have room in your income portfolio for some new additions? If you do, then it could be worth considering the three ASX dividend stocks in this article.
That's because brokers have put buy ratings on them and are forecasting attractive and growing payouts in the near term.
Here's what they are recommending to clients:
Cedar Woods Properties Limited (ASX: CWP)

The broker currently has a buy rating and $9.70 price target on its shares.
Jumbo Interactive Ltd (ASX: JIN)
Another ASX dividend stock that could be a buy for income investors is Jumbo Interactive.
