How long after purchase can you refinance?

Just curious, how long after a house purchase can you refinance (if rates go down). This is a conforming loan. Can you refinance 6 months after purchase with the same lender who funded the purchase loan?

We did 5 years ago. We refinanced with the same mortgage company 6 months after we closed initially. We then refinanced again last year.

We refinanced after about 5 years - we bought at 6.375% in 2007. Refinanced in 2012 at 3.83% - BIG savings! We stayed with our current lender.

I think you can refinance at any time after purchase.
