If a creditor withdrew their claim after I objected to the claim can that person now sue me in a local court?

No. The creditor is limited to going through bankruptcy court to collect on the debt from you. If the creditor has a lien on some property (such as a car loan or a mortgage), the creditor can enforce that lien in local court but you're not personally liable. If the creditor does attempt to sue you personally in local court, you can defend the claim in the local court or file an action to defeat the claim in the bankruptcy court. Some local judges aren't expert in bankruptcy law, so I usually recommend that my clients defend in bankruptcy court.

The bankruptcy law does not provide any guidelines that prevent people from purchasing any property after filing bankruptcy. The bankruptcy law also does not prohibit any creditor from issuing people who filed bankruptcy from financing the purchase of property. However, federal regulations and individual institutional criteria do specify when these organizations can consider people eligible for financing, and you would have to ask them, not an attorney, about their criteria. Not all operate the same way.
