Getting a static IP at home? (self.homelab)

I currently pay 70$ a month for residential 50/50 Ziply fiber internet in Oregon. On the ziply website it says it would be 50$ a month for 100/100 small business fiber. Would that let me get a static IP, port 25 unblocked and reverse dns? Are there any strings attached as it seems strange for small business internet to be cheaper than residential?

Honestly I don't use a static IP address at home and I don't expose things at home to the internet.

What I do instead is I have a VM in linode that has wireguard setup with a proxy. I can then forward specific traffic into a proxnox VM which has another proxy that routes tranfic to the final service. I have my proxnox cluster setup with firewalls in order to prevent compromised hosts from getting out
