Penny Grman
The return of Penny (Best) Grman as a Real Estate closer adds additional experience and continuity to the company’s team. Grman’s return reflects Madison County Title’s emphasis on relationships, trusted service, and knowledgeable professionals who understand the importance of communication, precision, and follow-through in every transaction.
Since 1984, Madison County Title Company has built its reputation on accuracy, expertise, and integrity in title research, clearing title issues, issuing title insurance policies, and providing insured real estate closings. The company’s next phase will continue that commitment while expanding access, strengthening operations, and providing attorney-supported title services for complex real estate transactions.
As part of its growth, Madison County Title Company has moved its Edwardsville office to 217 South Main Street. The company can still be reached at (618) 656-0400.
Expanded locations

With this expanded footprint, Madison County Title Company is positioned to serve more communities while maintaining the local knowledge, responsiveness, and personal service that have defined the company for decades.
Attorney-supported title services
A key distinction for Madison County Title Company is its commitment to being one of the few title companies in the region with access to attorneys who can assist with the most complex real estate transactions. This attorney-supported approach allows the company to help navigate complicated title issues, unique property concerns, challenging closing circumstances, and transactions requiring deeper legal and real estate experience.
“Real estate transactions are not always simple. When a file becomes complex, parties need more than a routine process. They need a team with the knowledge, sound judgment, and professional resources to help move the transaction forward,” Hall further noted.
