you know that you don't store any coins on remote masternode?
if the hoster is scam your mn service maybe will go down and you maybe loose some prepaid fees but you can't loose any pivx

just to make this clear for all new noders i see here

btw. i use vultr hosting for about year now with quite a few nodes without any major problems. sure i had to resync some nodes here and there but thats all

not sure where you live but in my country i can't run a 5 nodes instance for 5 bucks/month (1$/month/masternode). i would pay al lot more for power costs alone. not considered hw costs ...
you will also have a hard time if you don't have a static ip and you need one ip for any node

but a node is a node  .  if you like to host @ home just gor for it
