Affordable Housing RE Developer?

After spending several years at a top affordable housing lender (Wells, Citi, BofA) doing mostly 4% LIHTC deals, would leaving for a developer be a good trade off? 

I've been searching the forum for some discussions on affordable housing developers, but coming up a bit shy. Since it's a fee game, is there less risk in it? Would going a developer at the mid level pay well? I'm a bit clueless on comp/hours - if anyone had ANY insights/data, it would be much appreciated!
