Yahoo Finance's free mortgage calculator shows how various interest rates and term lengths will impact your monthly mortgage payment.

The national average 30-year mortgage rate is 6.87% right now, according to Zillow .

With an ARM, you have no idea what mortgage rates will be like once the intro-rate period ends.

Refinancing into a shorter term will also land you a lower rate, though your monthly payments will be higher.
