Founder & Managing Principal

Founder of Cooper One Fourteen, Inc.

CA DRE #01974051

Dick Hamparsumian founded Cooper One Fourteen in 2018 to carry forward and expand the real estate legacy established through K Investment Co. and the work of Ronald N. Krajian. As Founder and Managing Principal, he oversees the firm's brokerage, advisory, investment, residential, and strategic initiatives from Newport Beach.

His perspective is shaped by direct involvement in real estate investment, brokerage, asset management, and advisory work across commercial and residential property types. He approaches each assignment as part of a broader decision involving timing, risk, capital, market position, and long-term value.

Under his leadership, Cooper One Fourteen has developed into an independent real estate platform serving owners, investors, buyers, sellers, and business leaders who expect thoughtful counsel and careful execution. Dick also serves as Chair and Executive Director of the Ronald N. Krajian Foundation, continuing the philanthropic commitment of the firm's founding generation.

In Memoriam

Ronald N. Krajian

Founder of K Investment Co.

1931 – 2017

CA DRE #00150407

Ronald N. Krajian established K Investment Co. in 1960 and built the company through real estate ownership, investment, and development across California and beyond. His approach was defined by patience, selectivity, and a belief that real estate should be understood as a long-term asset rather than a short-term transaction.

Over decades, Ron developed a reputation for disciplined decision-making, lasting relationships, and quiet success in land, development, and investment opportunities. His influence continues to shape Cooper One Fourteen's approach to ownership, advisory work, and client relationships.

Ron's legacy also continues through the Ronald N. Krajian Foundation, a private charitable foundation dedicated to supporting children and families in need.

"One of the best things you can do if you have the opportunity — is to help others."

Ron Krajian · Founder, K Investment Co.
