Debt vs Equity Side

I’m currently at a major shop in their Agency Debt origination group and have an offer to move to NYC in an equity placement role for multifamily at another major shop. They’re complete opposites but unsure of what the pros/cons are of each. Anybody that has experience moving from one role to the other, any advice or thoughts would be very much appreciated.

 

I’d need more info but generally equity placement should be more interesting than agency. I made a similar move out of agency and I’m very happy I did.

But you don’t want to take too big of a step back in brand to make it happen. Eg hopefully you’re not going from Wells Fargo Multifamily group to an unheard of equity placement shop that only does a few deals a year

It would be a step down if I were to compare to company prestige, but both companies are top 5 lenders on the debt side. While I do think it would be more interesting, the money on the agency side is much better from what I can see which is the situation I’m inwhich is the current situation I’m inand id be able to grow quicker and make more money faster
