Buy-to-let minimum income?

I have a property currently let out on a non buy-to-let mortgage (used to live in the property and my existing lender allowed it to be rented on the same mortgage). The interest rate has recently gone up to 6.24% as my discount period has ended.
Can I get a better rate by remortgaging on a buy-to-let basis, and will anyone lend to me? The figures are:
annual income £20,000 but rising to about £22,000 soon
property value £200,000
mortage remaining £67,000
rental income £780 per month
thanks for any help, I can't seem to find anything useful on line yet!

Yes you can do better than 6.24%
At £780 per month rent it shouldn't be a problem getting a buy to let mortgage to cover more than remaining.
