Property expert and former Super League rugby player Dave Petersen is taking a stand against outdated perceptions of Hull with the launch of the city\u2019s first-ever Hull Property Trade Show.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After years of watching investors flock to Leeds and Manchester, the former Hull KR forward says he is frustrated with how Hull is being overlooked \u2013 often seen as \u201ccheap\u201d but rarely understood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople are buying here without knowing the city.  They\u2019re chasing low prices but missing the real value.  Hull isn\u2019t just affordable, it\u2019s investable \u2013 and it deserves better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With average property prices around \u00a3140,000, Hull offers a significantly lower barrier to entry than other northern cities, where prices often exceed \u00a3250,000 -\u00a3300,000.  Petersen, founder of property firm Citygate North, argues that this affordability, combined with high rental yields, creates a stronger return on investment (ROI) for investors who take the time to understand the city and invest responsibly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI want to shine a spotlight on the untapped potential here and put to bed all those outdated misconceptions.  We\u2019ve got top UK property experts speaking as well as exhibitors from local trades and property professionals to legal, finance, tech and investment services, representing the full spectrum of Hull\u2019s property scene including Bridge McFarland, Towergate and Alessandro Caruso Architects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople will get the opportunity to connect with local experts and learn how to build portfolios that benefit both investors and the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis isn\u2019t just a trade show.  It\u2019s a regeneration platform.  Hull is booming \u2013 people just need to see it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The show is being endorsed by some of Hull\u2019s most successful entrepreneurs and business owners, including Dr Paul Sewell OBE<\/strong>. He said:

\u201cHull has always been a city of resilience, innovation and opportunity, but it continues to be underestimated. The Hull Property Trade Show is a brilliant chance to show investors, developers and the wider business world what we\u2019re really about. It brings people together from across the property sector, shines a light on Hull\u2019s strengths and helps build the confidence we need to keep driving local regeneration and growth. I\u2019m proud to support it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Business Culture Hull & East Yorkshire<\/a> is also supporting the show.\u00a0 Tony Bowler<\/a> said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to attract key influential voices from across the UK property sector to our great city of Hull.  We\u2019ve got a growing reputation as a vibrant, forward-thinking place to connect, learn and invest.  And it\u2019s not just about investing, it\u2019s about making Hull your home.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, David Hooper<\/strong>, from the Hull and Humber Chamber of Commerce, said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to support the Hull Property Trade Show to showcase and encourage further development, regeneration and investment in the region.  This event aligns nicely with our mission statement \u2013 \u201cGrowing your business, building our economy\u201d \u2013 and we welcome the opportunity to connect with businesses in the property, building and construction sectors to promote and leverage residential, commercial, investment and regeneration opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hull Property Trade Show takes place on Saturday 8th November 2025 from 9am \u2013 6pm at Princes Quay Shopping Centre, Hull.  Tickets are available now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
