>Can I use the new Lazy class in the getter? if so, I could use some help coding it. I don't quite understand it. Is there any benefit to sing Lazy over what I have here?

Not much benefit unless thread safety is a concern. If you did want to use it then something like this:

   public class Something
    {
        private Lazy<List<MerchantLocationModel>> locations;

        public Something()
        {
            locations = new Lazy<List<MerchantLocationModel>>(
                () => { return GetList(); }
                );
        }

        public List<MerchantLocationModel> Locations
        {
            get { return locations.Value; }
        }

        public List<MerchantLocationModel> GetList()
        {
         TDCDataProvider provider = new TDCDataProvider();
            return provider.GetMerchantLocations(RecordId);
        }
    }
