You can look at graphs of San Francisco pricing and it has been wildly volatile over time.

Here's the graph I was referring to.

Plus funds for rehab (if any) till the first milestone.

However it is paid in draws, in arrears, and held in escrow until each milestone is signed off.This means you still need to fund (or find funding) for:- the downpayment, whatever the HML does not cover of the purchase.

Subs cost money a lot of money and there's timelines and timetables and like I said - each milestone has to get city approval/code.Also, imagine you get to the stage where it's done, do you know interior design?

Graph paper and pencil or Bluebeam.

You want to maximize profits & minimize cost so the sweet spot is the upper left of the graph.

The websites for both are filled with tons and tons and tons of data, stats, graphs etc. 

Just curious, what is "nuts" about that graph?

There’s nothing wrong with doing different draws when they hit milestones.
