I am a hard money lender and need advise if an unsecured loan I made through the Solo 401k defaults and is uncollectible are there tax write-offs as a result of the uncollected loan?

    No, it would be a total loss. Account holders can't take any write-offs personally for investments made in the 401k. Doing an unsecured loan is a horrible idea.
