      what does 'Outliner' say is in the drawing?

      if anything is there, can you double click into editing an item?

      you may have a really long line that's throwing things out.

      revert to last Saved may also work

      learn from the mistakes of others, you may not live long enough to make them all yourself...

          driven hit on something to check. It may be that it's not a really long line but a tiny line segment that is placed at a long distance from the rest of the model. As he suggested, what happens when you double click on something in the Outliner? Another thing to do is right click on one of the entries in Outliner and choose Zoom Extents. If you find your model that way, take careful note of where it is. Then hit Camera>Zoom Extents or Zoom Extents on the toolbar. Drag a large selection box around the area where the model isn't and hit Delete. Hit Zoom Extents again to see if you were able to select and delete the tiny thing causing the problem.

            Ok! so when I double click on something in the Outliner the name disappears. Also when I right click on something in the outliner and choose Zoom Extents, it doesn't do anything. So today while trying to figure this out I went to camera>position camera and then change the view style to back edges and this is what I get. Everything seems to be there...

But yeah the outliner shows everything in there, when I click on something in the outliner, the name sort of disappears. Also when I right click on something in the Outliner and then click on zoom extents it doesn't do anything.

                Well, you really haven't given us a whole lot to work with and it doesn't sound like you've tried our suggestions. What happens when you turn on Hidden Geometry? Have you tried Command-A and Edit>Unhide all? Is it possible you've turned off Edges in the style setting? Maybe you could give us a screen shot of the Outliner?

                  Is this an ordinary display issue due to unsupported OpenGL?

                  Try menu Window > Preferences > OpenGL > disable 'Use hardware acceleration' and restart SketchUp to see if you model is visible as should.

                      You have got a lot of overly complex geometry and multi-level nested objects your that SKP...
                      Something in there probably has some rogue geometry a zillion miles off the origin causing issues...

                      Some of the objects are also weirdly named etc...
                      e.g. the 'kitchen' and the the two 'baths'...

                      Try exporting some of the components as individual SKPs and work on those, then reload them...
