Can you rent an apartment in Germany with upfront rent payments if you're unemployed and haven't found a job yet?
Yes, it's theoretically possible, but you need to be extremely cautious. Based on community experience, many individuals who demand upfront payments might be scammers and won't actually rent you an apartment. It's highly recommended to seek support from trustworthy sources and real estate agents.
