If you hold down the SHIFT key while moving Keyframes the movement value will be always happening at the last fraction.

Move by editing Time and Value

You can also move selected Keyframes by editing the Time and Value fields of the Active Keyframe. With there method you can use absolute and relative values:

Move to 2. mins: 2:00:00
Move to 2. secs: 2:00
Move to 2. frames: 2
Move to value 27: 27
Move to negative value -27: (-27)
