Rotherhithe is a residential district east of London and is in Southwark Borough, around 4 miles east south-east of the capital's centre. It previously had a long history as a port but has been extensively redeveloped with relatively upmarket housing, with warehouse conversions and new build developments and is very popular with commuters working in Central London.
Landmarks include Severn Islands Leisure Centre, built on the site of the old town hall and St Mary's Parish Church. Street names here after often evocative of the area's past use, such as Russia Dock Road, for example.

Greater London is an area which contains London, the capital of the United Kingdom (which itself centres on the Cities of London and Westminster) and a number of surrounding boroughs which are administered as London boroughs and which are the overall executive responsibility of the Mayor of London. It contains a large number of constituencies, each represented by an MP and it should be noted that these are not the same as nor even always continguous with the borders of the boroughs.Many parts of Greater London were originally administered by the counties which surround London and these counties are often called the home counties. Enfield, for example, used to be classed as being part of Middlesex, but is now near the northern border of Greater London. Greater London's borders often coincide with a zone of 'green belt': areas where it has been decided that open spaces, parks, forests and wildlife reserves should act as a buffer against urban sprawl. London has numerous landmarks, anything from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery.
Greater London contains more than 9 million inhabitants, a number growing daily, and as this is approximately 1/7 of the population of the UK, it can be seen that Greater Londoners have a large influence on the rest of the country politically and this is enhanced by the concentration of skilled workers gravitating towards the capital.

What are the conveyancing costs?
Rotherhithe Conveyancing Solicitor fees dramatically vary depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.

Can you have a pet in a leasehold property?
As a freeholder, you have no restriction on whether you can have a pet in your property assuming it isn't something like a pet tiger! However you shouldn't assume this is okay if you're buying a leasehold.
As a leaseholder you are effectively still a tenant but with a much longer term than if you were renting and leasehold agreements often have what are called restrictive covenants which may prohibit the keeping of pets (dogs and cats rather than goldfish!).
The challenge you face is that you might only find out about such a restrictive covenant quite far into the conveyancing process - at the legal enquiries stage - when your solicitor examines the leasehold contract.
Sometimes a freeholder can be persuaded to consent to waive the particular clause - your solicitor organises what is known as a deed of variation - but there's no guarantee and if you choose to go ahead regardless, you might ultimately risk a court ordering you to remove the pet from the premises.
