Default buying a plane to train

So I know its been mentioned that buying a plane to to train in could be the most cost effective route and I had some questions. So first for someone who wants to become a pilot would you recommend this route, what type of plane would you recommend buying for someone looking for the cheapest possible option. I'm assuming an ifr 152 or 172, but really don't know that much about it so I'm looking for your expertise. How much could I expect to pay for training this way? I know there's tradeaplane, any other good place to look? I'm also assuming I could sell the plane after I get done with training, would it depreciate a lot? Any advice appreciated
