부동산 관련 에이전트는 많은 집주인들이 부동산 시장이 강세를 보일때쯤해서
서클라인 MRT 연계지점 근처에 자신의 집을 이용해 수익을 얻고 싶어한다고 말했다.

4월 17일 이후로 새로운 서클라인이 생긴 이래  부동산 판매관심이 10 내지는 20퍼센트가량이 올랐다고 한다.

어떤 집주인들은 라인이 오픈될때까지 기다렸다가 집을 판매해줄것을 요구하는 사람도 있었다.

 
SINGAPORE: Real estate agents said more owners are looking to cash in on their homes near the Circle Line train network, even as the property market powers on.

They said there has been a 10 to 20 per cent rise in interest in selling those properties since the 11 new Circle Line stations opened on April 17.

The Circle Line network moves over 200,000 commuters a day.

Market watchers said it's also moving properties near the 11 newly opened train stations.

For instance, Dennis Wee Properties has seen sales interest increase 20 per cent over the past two weeks.

Chris Koh, director, Dennis Wee Properties, said: "There were some owners that we spoke to who said that we should wait for the lines to be opened and then put my property up for sale and they have been asking now since the line has been up five to 10 per cent more than what they used to go."

Steven Ming, director, Investment Sales & Prestige Homes, Savills, said: "With rising cost of car ownership here in Singapore, we can expect a growing appreciation amongst home buyers for properties located close to such transport nodes or good network and they may well be willing to pay as much as maybe 20 per cent more.”
