Investment sales underwriter ➡️ origination (mortgage banking)

Is it easy to start in underwriting for an investment sales team and then move into becoming an originator in mortgage banking? I feel like the skills are virtually the same since you have experience valuing properties regardless of if you were in UW on the IS side or the mortgage banking side before becoming an originator
