Checking if the value of type DateTime is null in view and showing blank if null

Question

From my controller I have passed value module to view

    public ActionResult Details(long id, string owner)
    {
        var module = _ownedModuleRepository.GetModuleDetails(id, owner);

        return View(module);
    }

I've shown the value it contains in view as follows

    <dt>ID</dt>
    <dd>@Model.Id</dd>

    <dt>Module ID</dt>
    <dd>@Model.ModuleId</dd>

     <dt>Owner</dt>
    <dd>@Model.Owner</dd>

    <dt>Module Type</dt>
    <dd>@Model.TypeName</dd>

    <dt>Module Kind</dt>
    <dd>@Model.KindName</dd>

    <dt>Ownership Start Date</dt>
    <dd>@Model.Start</dd>

    <dt>Ownership End Date</dt>
    <dd>@Model.End</dd>

    @foreach (var properties in Model.Properties)
    {
        <dt>Property Name</dt>
        <dd>@properties.Name</dd>
        <dt>Property Value</dt>
        <dd>@properties.Value</dd>
    }

Currently @Model.End is null, it is of DateTime type and I had set it to be nullable in viewmodel. Since it is null, this is what i'm getting in view

As you can see, the value of Ownership End Date is taking the value of Property Name from below. How can I set it to empty if the @Model.End is null?

Edit 1:

My model

public class OwnedModuleDetails
{
    public long Id { get; set; }

    public string ModuleId { get; set; }

    public string Owner { get; set; }

    public string KindName { get; set; }
    public string TypeName { get; set; }

    public DateTime Start { get; set; }

    public DateTime? End { get; set; }

    public IEnumerable<Property> Properties { get; set; }
}

Method from the repository

     public OwnedModuleDetails GetModuleDetails(long id, string owner)
        {
// ReSharper disable ImplicitlyCapturedClosure
            var module = (_dbSis.OwnedModules.Where(t => t.Id == id).Select(m => new OwnedModuleDetails
// ReSharper restore ImplicitlyCapturedClosure
            {
                Id = id,
                ModuleId = m.ModuleId,
                TypeName = m.ModuleType.TypeName,
                KindName = m.ModuleType.ModuleKind.KindName,
                Owner = owner,
                Start = m.Start,
                End = m.End,
                Properties = m.PropertyConfiguration.PropertyInstances.Select(
                    x => new Property { Name = x.Property.Name, Value = x.Value })
            }));

            return (module.FirstOrDefault());
        }

Answer 1

Try adding a space:

<dt>Ownership End Date</dt>
<dd>
    @if (Model.End != null)
    {
        @Model.End
    }
    else
    {
        @:&nbsp;
    }
</dd>

Answer 2

I had this issue once, when user inserted null value in date column.

Which lead to this error:

System.InvalidOperationException: Nullable object must have a value

To solve this instead of DisplayFor just use below code in your view , so if the column value is null it will display Date is Empty

 <td>
            
@(item.Startdate.HasValue ? item.Startdate.Value.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") : "Date is Empty")

</td>

Further reading this and this for model

Hope helps someone.
