Who We Are

3318 Mowbray Lane, Cincinnati, Ohio 45226

Co-founder

Christian Dial

Christian co-founded Dial Residential with a focus on authenticity and family. While his background includes leadership on over 30 projects totaling $900 million in value, he shifted his focus to smaller scale communities to build something with a crafted approach.

Christian views every development through a long-term lens, managing the full lifecycle – from acquisition to operations – to ensure each building integrates respectfully into the neighborhood. His goal is to create thoughtful, innovative communities that feel like home, not just cookie-cutter units.

A resident of Madeira, Ohio, Christian is happiest when he’s with his wife Sarah, chasing around Hallie, Eva, and Will, or walking Bear and Sonny on the trails. He loves the rhythm of family life, playing basketball, and exploring neighborhoods.

Co-founder

Taylor Dial

Taylor helped launch Dial Residential in 2020 with a vision to build multifamily communities that feel as uniquely personal as they are purposeful. With over a decade of experience developing ground-up projects at one of the country’s top multifamily firms, Taylor brings a deep skill set in development and design, construction, and execution to support and scale that vision alongside his brother and co-founder, Christian.

Taylor is involved in all facets of the company from development and construction through property management and daily operations, always aiming to create communities residents genuinely enjoy living in.

He lives in Plainfield, IN with his wife Barb, their son Caiden, daughters Palmer and Tatum, and their goldendoodle, Nash. Outside of work, he enjoys coaching his kids in sports, catching basketball games (especially Caiden’s), fitting in a workout, and spending time with family and friends.
