Based on my experience, a house on the market is usally being sold by someone who lived in it. The seller being a landlord is plausible, but I’d usually just generically refer to that party as ‘the seller’.
Landlords tend to hold on to their revenue streams harder than a person holds on to their own residence.
Usually they have moved into their new home and have their uninhabited house on the market trying to get rid of it.
Maybe I’m missing implication in another culture, but around me landlord specifically refers to someone owning a home that is being actively rented/leased by another. If you haven’t had tenants, you aren’t considered a landlord
and thusly they could, on a whim, turn around and decide to sell their house. for no reason or any reason. Because they own that land. they are lord of that land. a landlord one might say. Gee language is fun

where does the person move to then after selling the house they live in? could it be…they have another house thus being a landlord?
you are right on the second part, though.

so landlords
If someone never had and is not looking for a tenant and is actively waiting for someone to buy their property, they are not a landlord.
