I found an enclosed, gated, personal reserved parking spot in this parking garage.

Ironically my insurance would go up by a fair bit if I park in the garage, driveway is cheapest, but it might be because garages in my country are tiny so increasing the risk of car damage

Your insurance company comes to check where your car is parked?

If there was a large claim, sure. Imagine you told your insurance company you had winter tires on, then totaled your car in an at fault accident slipping on ice. They are definitely checking your tires before paying out

Yeah, that makes sense. I'm sure a lot of people just lie when they sign up for insurance, but I can see where that would be a problem if it gets damaged while in the garage.
