Urban planning vs. MRED

Currently working for a lender in debt/ structured finance (Freddie Mac/ Fannie Mae) for affordable housing. End goal is to work for an actual affordable housing developer, rise to a senior position where I can eventually earn carry OR start my own firm.

Currently have a bachelors in business admin but am thinking of going for either a) masters in urban planning or b) masters in real estate development.

Which degree is best for this career path?
