How to assert that the API server contains the json property and values which is the same as the model being compared to?

I am trying to validate if the APIs contains the same property and value of the model that its being compared to. I have a Validate method which where I am deserializing the response from the server. I also have the DTO which the model. Then using Refection I am getting the property and values. But in Assert line its failing because the API server returns a Array and in that Arrray contains the model I am trying to compare it with. I know I can use Assert.equal because server can return other information as well.. How can I use contains or some other way to verify this.

public class PropertiesValidator<TModel> 
    {
        public static void Validate(IRestResponse response, TModel modelObj, params string[] propertiesNotToCompare)
        {
            var content = response.Content;
            object acutalObjects = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(content);

            PropertyInfo[] properties = acutalObjects.GetType().GetProperties();
            foreach (PropertyInfo currentRealProperty in properties)
            {
                if (!propertiesNotToCompare.Contains(currentRealProperty.Name))
                {
                    PropertyInfo currentExpectedProperty = modelObj.GetType().GetProperty(currentRealProperty.Name);
                    string exceptionMessage =
                        string.Format("The property {0} of class {1} was not as expected.", currentRealProperty.Name, currentRealProperty.DeclaringType.Name);
                    Assert.AreEqual(currentExpectedProperty.GetValue(modelObj, null), currentRealProperty.GetValue(acutalObjects, null), exceptionMessage);
       
                }
                   
            }


        }
           
    }

//Here is my Model DTO class

  public class TagDTO
    {
        public long id { get; set; }
        public string name{ get; set; }
        public long type{ get; set; }
        public object query{ get; set; }
        public object parentId { get; set; }
        public object ownerId { get; set; }
        public object activeDirectoryId { get; set; }
        public bool hasChildren { get; set; }

        public static TagDTO actualObject()
        {
            return new TagDTO()
            {
                id = 5,
                name = "NotTag",
                type = 0,
                query = null,
                parentId = null,
                ownerId = null,
                activeDirectoryId = null,
                hasChildren = false
            };

        }

    }
//Here is the Json response from the Server.

[
  {
    "id": 5,
    "name": "NoTag",
    "type": 0,
    "query": null,
    "parentId": null,
    "ownerId": null,
    "activeDirectoryId": null,
    "hasChildren": false
  },
  {
    "id": 6,
    "name": "MyTag",
    "type": 0,
    "query": null,
    "parentId": null,
    "ownerId": "eccf46f3-348b-422e-8789-c163b5953b41",
    "activeDirectoryId": null,
    "hasChildren": false
  }
]

What I have tried:

Not sure.. maybe we can use CollectionAssert.Contains()
