Ownership by your daughter does not require your ex to move out.

The easiest option is for you to simply execute a declaration of trust in favour of your daughter giving her 100% beneficial ownership.

No amendment to the "deeds" is required ie you remain the legal owner; this is preferable given the on-going mortgage.
