First, there's not a conflict of interest. The real estate agent & the inspector both work for you, the buyer, and both have your interests as their prime concern.
Second, I doubt very much you will EVER get a sellers attorney to sign off on a contract stating that the contract will be in any way jeopardized as a result of the buyer and one of his contracted service providers not being able to coordinate the timing of that service. You missing out on the beginning of the inspection is YOUR issue, not the sellers issue.
