I could use port forwarding, but for some of these things I like to have them exposed fully to the internet without running them on seemingly random ports. Plus not having to fiddle around with NAT is good (for the PBX at least).
Having all those things behind their own firewalls and separated from my home network is what I need.
I could easily get by with just a single dynamic IP, but owing largely to my job, having this fancy setup works a treat.

VM not complying with RIPE guidelines there accepting that as a valid reason for the IP allocation
Generally speaking you can run a sftp server on the same ip as a webserver, they dont use the same port.
