The buyer is not responsible for paying this tax as it is usually included in the closing costs and paid by the seller. The lender is also not responsible for paying this tax. While an estate agent may be involved in the transaction, they are not responsible for paying the Documentary Stamp Tax. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
