Refinancing or extra principal payoff on adjustable mortgages
A Philadelphia Inquirer column explains that ARMs with around 5.5% to just under 6% can be costly.

If refinanced, locking a fixed rate may be best, or pay down principal to reduce future payments. Use mortgage calculators at Bankrate and HSH.
