Technically, they never specifically set out to murder Tate. The house belonged to Terry Melcher, who Manson had a grudge against, for refusing to produce his album. Tate & Polanski were renting it from Melcher, but Manson didn't know that. Tate & her friends were really just in the wrong place at the wrong time, because the group was supposed to kill Melcher.

Manson did know that. He visited the house looking for Melcher and found Tate there.
Even though his initial visit was motivated by a dispute with Melcher, it’s pretty clear that Tate was the target.
