If I trim a boxwood way back, what am I to expect?

I need to trim back two very large boxwoods in the front of my house because they are simply too large. However, as I started to hack them back, I noticed there was no growth inside the shrub.
If I hack them back now (we are in mid-spring in zone 6/7), how long before there is new growth?
More importantly, can anyone recommend how to trim them to the shrubs so they don't look terrible?
I am actually selling the house, so I both need the shrubs smaller and need them to look good!
