Two unmarried women (not domestic partners) own 2 properties together
but one mortgage is in one person's name and one mortgage is in the
other.  Both names are on the title of both houses.  Are both women
financially responsible for both mortgages?

The property was originally purchased by both women, with both names
on the mortgage.  They have since refinanced both houses in their
individual names.  If one woman defaults on her loan will the other be
financially responsible, even though the new loan (the re-fi) is only
in one person's name?
