Hey Holly, What sorts of maintenance are you referring to? If you are talking about basic HTML/CSS updates, we've been alright handing that off to someone else. For more intense maintenance like CMS customizations, upgrades, or other endeavors that could take the whole site down, I prefer to keep those in-house. If the client has a CMS in place, I'm all about having them maintain their content, but I've found (depending on the client) you need to be careful with how much rope you give them.
If you do hand it over to a webmaster, make sure it's someone you trust. Multiple bad updates, especially to site frameworks and the like can start to make things pretty buggy.

Do any of you maintain sites for your clients after you build their sites?
