Debt & Equity Placement Exit Ops

I am an analyst at a boutique debt and equity placement shop. About half of what we do is multifamily debt placement, be it a stabilized agency acquisition, a value-add bridge acquisition, or a cash-out refinance. The rest of our deals span the asset class spectrum (with a lot of ground up dev) and usually involve an equity raise component. I absolutely love what I do, but feel like I am significantly underpaid relative to the amount of work I do and that wont change in the near to mid-range future. What should I consider as far as an exit op? What kind of interest would a developer or REPE shop have in someone with this background? I appreciate any and all feedback.
