This wasn’t a matter of throwing an elderly woman out of her house when she couldn’t pay. Tyler had moved into assisted living and the condo was sitting empty; ideally she would have sold it herself instead of letting it sit accumulating penalties for years.
Edit for those who don’t want to read the entire opinion: “ In 1999, she bought a one-bedroom condominium in Minneapolis and lived alone there for more than a decade. But as Tyler aged, she and her family decided that she would be safer in a senior com- munity, so they moved her to one in 2010. Nobody paid the property taxes on the condo in Tyler’s absence and, by 2015, it had accumulated about $2300 in unpaid taxes and $13,000 in interest and penalties.”

It is not surprising that the ruling was unanimous - you can read the opinion here, and there is zero ideology in the legal logic: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/22pdf/22-166_q861.pdf
