Definition
过户 is a separable verb-object compound (离合词) meaning 'to transfer legal ownership' — usually for real estate, vehicles, or other registered assets. The verb 过 and the object 户 can split: you can insert a measure word, time, or complement between them, e.g. 过了一次户 ('went through one transfer') or 过好户 ('finish the transfer'). The standard pronunciation is guò hù, but this entry lists guō — treat as a variant or potential typo.
v.o.
to transfer ownership (property, vehicle, etc.)
