Question

I have multiple classes that all contain the same property along with a whole of different other properties. The classes don’t use any kind of Interface. What I would like to do is pass an instance of each class to a method that can check for the property.

Can generics be used for this? If so, how can I construct a method to perform this task?

Sounds like a use for dynamic (in C# 4.0)

public void DoMethodThing (dynamic your_object){
   your_object.ThatThingYouDo();
}
