Almost perfect.
You don't have to encode your ampersands in the querystring. In
fact, if you do, you'll probably get some unwanted characters in your
subject line.

The second ? needs to be &. Query strings should have the structure:
?field1=value1&field2=value2
Because you are in HTML, the & should be encoded as &, making the
correct code:
<a href="mailto:Enter your friend's email address?subject=Subject of the
email&body=http://www.linktogointobody.html" title="Email a link for
this property to a friend.">
