Its worth a try. The old law firm I worked for had to sue a solicitor in Sydney who had missed advising on this type of clause. Come settlement the purchaser was asked o pay around $150k in GST - which they allegedly didn't know about. Lawyer hadn't advised them.

Motive = make purchaser pay. This type of clause is pretty common on new properties.

What does your solicitor say? strike out that clause. You will probably be liable for GST.
