get post meta name

I am using the code <?php $key="property_type"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?> which is working but it is giving me the slug and not the long name. such as exclusive_properties instead of exclusive properties without the underscore.

How do I get this code to pule the name without the underscore thank you.
