You got that right! They also don't live long and come down at the wrong times...
Depending on your location, study the Arbor Day site... It really has all the info you need to make a decision. Talking to a local nursery or two is a good idea.
In fact, have them come out and have a look at the Magnolia. Perhaps it can be pruned and will regrow/fill out faster than a new tree. Pruning older stock often does great good for the vitality of it. The cut wounds may cause an earlier demise, but you may be able to get many more years out of it. (10+)
Please find a knowledgeable service, not some chainsaw hack with a bucket truck, and the cheapest price.
