the correct way solar glass is made is with the coating is on the INSIDE of the interior glass see the Cardinal glass web site.

With the downpours in the area, I would be concerned that water would splash up from the gutters and get under the shingles and eventually start leaks. With the lack of basements and the sand around the houses, gutters are not only unnecessary but detrimental in my opinion. Seems like the general quality is good- finishes on the concrete, drywall, etc.

Water really can't get under the shingles there is a starter course and a drip rail. I have never heard of a problem here.
As far as gutters (which cost only a $1 a foot) is don't install them if you want the edge of your slab to get saturated along with the sod or plant beds touching same............if you don't install them the termites will thank you over and over again.
You need to move water away from the foundation avoid that moisture.
