There are many ways to express it.

Hola. No estoy en casa ahora ...

(that is not something that you want to tell a burglar. I would allow your caller to assume that you are screening calls and that you may be at home).

Hágame el favor de dejar un mensaje.

Have burglars not figured out that if an outgoing message says "I can't come to the phone right now" probably nobody is home. ;) - Leatha, Apr 29, 2011
If burglars were smart would so many be in jail? Anyway, there is no sense helping him. Let him assess the risk. Maybe he will just move on to the next person. (the one that says, I'm not home now) - 0074b507, Apr 29, 2011

I am not trying to be smart, just curious, but if you don't know how to leave a message in Spanish, how will you know what they say if they do leave a message?
