Buy-to-let mortgages before 6 months ownership of first home?

Hi all..

I just bought my home about 2 months ago, and was wondering if i wanted to get a buy-let-mortgage i could do it?

I have clean credit.
and 25% deposit.

I heard that lenders will only lend after 6 months of ownership of your first property.

But there are always exceptions...

Is there any lender?

Thanks

    You can always give a try. And if won't work, four months will go fast.

    Are you wanting to rent out your current residential property or buy another to rent out?
