You don't have to live in a house to have a mortgage on it.

You don't have to live in the state to pay for utilities or have a vehicle registered here either.

Well, even though you pay the mortgage it doesn't mean you actually live there. This keeps out-of-county/state landlords from claiming they live in a house they're renting out. Most landlords aren't leasing the property they're renting to others. Now, if an enterprising homeowner wishes to rent out their property, and just happen to pay the gas bill under their name for the tenants...

Print her out a lease agreement.

Title of the house is probably in both names.
