Answer: The Baker
Step-by-step explanation:
Payment is a form of contract and until payment has been done with papers signed it is not yet an agreement or a contract. The baker is still liable for anything that has to do with the land, the buyer has not paid any money and is not responsible. The landlord would hold the baker accountable, while the baker has to keep in touch with the buyer to know his interest in the property but till then, the baker is to be held accountable.
