Html.Raw outputting HTML as text

Question

I have a property in my Model which has string content similar to:

&lt;p&gt;Hello&lt;/p&gt;`

Using @Html.Raw(myProperty) outputs to the browser

<p>Hello</p>

When I expect

Hello

I tried doing @Html.Raw(Html.Raw(myProperty)) but this reverted it back to the orginal string.

Is there any way to render this text as expected without resorting to using .Replace("<", "<"), etc?

Try the following:

@Html.Raw(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(myProperty))
