Historical Beauty of the Virginia Piedmont

Found in high level but rockier terrain than that of the coastal plain of Tidewater, Piedmont is located above the Fall Line but below the Valley and Ridges that lead to the Blue Ridge. Piedmont is a Latin word that literally means “foot and mountain”. Charlottesville and Lynchburg are important cities in Piedmont that portrays historical beauty in the modern world. The Appomattox courthouse where Generals Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant met after years of war can also be found in Piedmont.

Piedmont’s dwellers were originally the English pioneers during the early colonial era and then served as home for American slaves who labored at the region’s plantations of Tobacco and Corn. Up to date, these produce remain to be an important part of Piedmont’s economy.

Mortgage Rates Might Not Be Low for Long

The near-record low mortgage rates seen during the past few weeks may not be around much longer.

Signs of improving economic conditions could lead Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke to raise key interest rates, driving up mortgage rates, says Stephen Stanley, chief economist at Pierpont Securities LLC.

The evidence includes more consumers are paying their bills on time. Past-due accounts at American Express declined 34 percent compared to a year ago, and Target Corp. reported its lowest delinquency rate in two years during the second quarter.

In another sign of economic improvement, fewer banks reported tightening lending standards this month, one reason consumer borrowing rose for the second time in three months.

“If lending standards start to stabilize, that’ll be another reason to remove the emergency measures, including the zero rate,” says Jay Bryson, a senior global economist at Wells Fargo Securities LLC in Charlotte, N.C., who formerly worked at the Fed in Washington.
